**Rib Cage Anatomy Identification Exercise****Instructions:****A)** Identify the type of rib the arrow points to. [true/ false/ floating]**B)** Which two bones would this rib articulate with?**Image Description:**The image depicts a human rib cage with ribs highlighted in blue and beige. An arrow points to a rib on the right side of the illustration. The highlighted structures provide a clear view of rib arrangement and positioning.**Graph/Diagram Explanation:**- **Rib Highlighting:** The image shows blue and beige coloring where blue likely indicates cartilage and beige indicates the bony part of the ribs. - **Arrow Indication:** The arrow points to a specific rib for the purpose of identification. **Educational Points:**1. **True Ribs:** These are the first seven pairs of ribs which are directly attached to the sternum.2. **False Ribs:** These are the 8th, 9th, and 10th pairs of ribs which do not directly attach to the sternum but are connected to the 7th rib by cartilage.3. **Floating Ribs:** The 11th and 12th pairs of ribs which do not attach to the sternum at all.**Answering the Questions:**- For part A, you need to classify the rib type (true, false, or floating) based on its attachment to the sternum.- For part B, identify which two bones this rib articulates with, typically the thoracic vertebrae and the sternum for true and false ribs or only the thoracic vertebrae for floating ribs.**Engagement Activity:**Encourage students to observe a model of the rib cage and practice identifying different types of ribs.
