    65. The human body has over 200 bones.
    66. An adult human has about 5 quarts (4.7 liters) of blood.
    67. A dog's sense of smell is about 25 times more powerful than ours. (although it’s said on Internet that it’s 50 -100 times more powerful than ours).
    68. Identical twins have the same DNA.

    I already knew some of these things but I got confirmation to that, that they are true.
