The shoulder joins the arm to the torso.

A very different and fairly common quasi-human kind was sometimes produced by planets rather larger than the Earth. Owing to the greater strength of gravitation, there would first appear, in place of the familiar quadruped, a six-legged type. This would proliferate into little sextuped burrowers, swift and elegant sextuped grazers, a sextuped mammoth, complete with tusks, and many kinds of sextuped carnivora. Man in these worlds sprang usually from some small opposum-like creature which had come to use the first of its three pairs of limbs for nest-building or for climbing. In time, the forepart of its body thus became erect, and it gradually assumed a form not unlike that of a quadruped with a human torso in place of a neck. In fact it became a centaur, with four legs and two capable arms. It was very strange to find oneself in a world in which all the amenities and conveniences of civilization were fashioned to suit men of this form.

Sami sent Layla photos of his torso.

The human body consists of a head, neck, and torso, and upper and lower extremities.

In the human torso are two pairs of floating ribs. These ribs do not actually drift freely in the chest, but, unlike the other ribs, they are attached only at one end.

I point the fan at my upper torso and I wrap an electric blanket around my lower half. My body temperature finds an equilibrium between hot and cold.
