Explanation

Each limb of the human body has 30 bones. These bones along with their respective girdles constitute the appendicular skeleton. The appendicular skeleton is one of the two major divisions of the skeletal system, with the axial skeleton being the other. The axial skeleton is composed of the bones of the skull, vertebral column, and rib cage, while the appendicular skeleton comprises the bones of the upper and lower limbs, as well as the pectoral and pelvic girdles.
