small bone

[charlfarl]

where is the smallest bone in the body?

[skillbird]

In the ear

[Waterwolf]

Yes, the smallest bones in the human body are the hammer, anvil and stirrup in the ear, though I don't know which one is the smallest.

[ajwoodiwiss]

Waterwolf is correct. I can confirm that the smallest bone is the 'stirrup' bone. It is 3mm long. The three ear bones are just behind the ear-drum.

Is that the human body? because if not i think you will find that i differs from animal to animal.

[Ginbottle]

I think that the bone is proportionately the same in each animal. It is always the ear bones for the smallest. To think of the giraffe spine or dinosaur backbones
