Babies have 350(around) bones but adults have only 206. Why?

The infant skeleton has the following bones in addition to those of an adult:\n\n   1. sacral vertebrae (4 or 5), which fuse in adults to form the sacrum\n   2. coccygeal vertebrae (3 to 5), which fuse in adults to form the coccyx\n   3. ilium, ischium and pubis, which fuse in adults to form the pelvic girdle\n\nAs you can see, the increased number of bones is just because as infants mature, some bones fuse into eachother to become one bone.

BABY?  Did you say Baby?\n\nYou can't extrapolate your babies teeth to your adult dentition.  In fact that's what you want.  GAPS\n\nLot's of gaps, the more gaps the better.  \n\nGaps signify a growing maxilla and mandible.  Growth? you ask?\n\nYes growth.  The adult teeth are way bigger than the baby teeth.  Dentists look for gaps as an indicator that your child will have fewer problems moving into their adult dentitions.  For now,  Don't sweat the gaps\nGaps are good.\n\nHope it puts your mind at ease about gaps.

"...while the adult skeleton contains 206 bones, the skeleton of an infant contains 350 (the bones fuse together as you grow). And more than half of your 206 bones are found in your hands and feet."

We are born with as many as 214 bones, but as we grow older the number of our bones may reduce to as few as 206.

We have 206 bones in the adult human body.

well being to thin as you grow older has been linked to osteoporosis , so have a bit of meat not to much or you will get diabetes; but slightly overweight people have more dense bones to support themselves generally speaking but it has been documented....this is assuming this overweight person is not completely sedentary....umm of course ostocal or some produsct like that is also said to improve skeletal health

Babies are born with 270 soft bones, about 64 more than an adult. These will fuse together by the age of twenty or twenty-five into the 206 hard, permanent bones

I am thinking that this has something to do with teeth, because of the 32 family members and the second birth part, but I am at a loss as to what exactly the answer could be.

Babies bones are very soft at a young age. trying to get them to do something they are not ready for is not wise at all.\nThe best IMO is to let them build themself up by running jumping and play. That means at least 4-5 years old I would think.

35kg is approx 5 1/2 stone - so the weight of a 6 yr child.

it's probably not osteoporosis, it's probably Scoliosis. Which is very common, go see your pediatrician

By just looking at the pelvic bone you might be able to tell if the skeleton is from a man or a woman. Women have "child-bearing" hips, which means they are wider set so a baby can pass through. Men have pelvic bones that are more narrow (because nothing has to pass through!)

I have no idea how many teeth you have... how old are you?  The adult dentition has 32 teeth and a child's dentition has 20 teeth.  Of course, there is always the possibility that some teeth never develop (most common is wisdom teeth) and some people even develop 'extra' teeth known as supernumerary teeth.

strangely we are born with about 300 bones but they fuse together as we grow, eventually we end up with 206 apx.

It is likely because average height has increased over time, and feet grow proportionately to height. For instance, 20-29 year-old males were on average 68.9 inches and females 63.7 inches in 1960-62, but in 1999-2002, 69.6 inches and 64.1 inches respectively. It seems like a small difference, but that's a pretty large shift for a mere 40 years.

Achondroplasia is a genetic disorder of bone growth that is evident at birth. It affects about one in every 25,000 births and it occurs in all races and in both sexes. Its depiction in ancient Egyptian art makes it one of the oldest recorded birth defects.\nThe vast majority of individuals with achondroplasia have normal intelligence and lead healthy, independent, and productive lives (Rogers et al, 1979). Rarely, intelligence may be affected secondary to hydrocephalus or other CNS complications. \n\nMean adult height is approximately 131 cm + 5.6 for males and 124 cm + 5.9 for females. Presence of severe disproportionate short stature can cause a number of psychosocial problems. \n\nLife span for heterozygous achondroplasia is usually normal unless there are serious complications. A mean life expectancy is approximately 10 years less than the general population (Hecht et al, 1987). \n\nHomozygous achondroplasia is a lethal condition with severe respiratory distress caused by rib-cage deformity. Radiographic changes are much more severe than the heterozygous achondroplasia. The patients die soon after birth.

some babies just don't have enough body fat to maintain their  heat. this might point to a problem with the baby's metabolism, or a problem the mom had during pregnancy.
