The adult human skeleton typically consists of around 206 bones. However this count may vary slightly due to anatomical differences and the fusion of certain ossification centers during development. For example some people might have ossification centers for the first sacral vertebrae (the sacrum) that do not fully fuse by adulthood leading to a total bone count of 207. Despite these variations 206 bones is widely recognized as the number, in an adult human skeleton.
