  1. true rib

    A true rib, also known as a vertebrosternal rib, refers to the first seven pairs of ribs in the human body that are directly connected to the sternum (breastbone) through their costal cartilage. This distinguishes them from the remaining five pairs of ribs, called false ribs, which either indirectly connect to the sternum or do not connect at all. The primary function of true ribs is to protect the internal organs in the chest, such as the lungs and heart.
