The human body is amazing. Your blood makes up about 8% of your body weight. On average, your heart will beat more than 3 billion times in your lifetime! Doctors and scientists make choices every day about how to keep our bodies going. But what would you change if you could? Would you choose to have super strength or super speed? Would you rather have no bones or no muscles? It's your turn to pick this or that!

Your amazing body
The human body is incredible. Under your skin are 206 bones and 11 major organ systems. Your heart beats more than 100,000 times each day. You have enough blood vessels to wrap around Earth two and a half times!
Although we have many similarities, our bodies are unique to us. Some children grow really quickly. Others grow more slowly. People age differently. People deal with different health problems throughout their lives. Even identical twins can have some physical differences.
