Hyoid Bone

Do you know that the only bone in the human body that is not connected to another bone is the Hyoid Bone, a U shaped bone at the base of the tongue.



It is supported by the muscles in the neck but not connected to any other bone.


The human Skeleton makes up about 1/5th of the person’s entire weight. An average adult weighing 70 kg will have a skeleton that weighs 14 kg.

isn't this great??

Thank you.
