Excerpt from Atlas and Text-Book of Human Anatomy, Vol. 1: Bones, Ligaments, Joints, and Muscles
The greater portion of the skeleton of the human body is composed of bones, the remainder consisting of cartilages, and since the bones consist largely of lime salts they are much firmer than the cartilages, which, though hard, are nevertheless flexible. The parts of the skeleton are either paired or single, the latter being in the minority.
