How many bones are in a human leg
3 answers
There are two bones in the human leg: the femur (thigh bone) and the tibia (shin bone). The fibula is often considered part of the leg as well, but it is smaller and not weight-bearing, so it is sometimes considered part of the foot.
There are a total of 60 bones in the legs.
I apologize for my previous response, it was incorrect. The actual answer is:
There are a total of 4 bones in the leg. The femur (thigh bone), patella (kneecap), tibia (shinbone), and fibula (calf bone).
