rib
rib One of a series of slender curved bones that form a cage to enclose, support, and protect the heart and lungs (see
thorax). Ribs occur in pairs, articulating with the
thoracic vertebrae of the spinal column at the back and (in reptiles, birds, and mammals) with the
sternum (breastbone) in front. Movements of the rib cage, controlled by
intercostal muscles between the ribs, are important in breathing (see
respiratory movement).
