Nothing special about five, it could have been four or six.  But what is amazing is that almost all four-limbed creatures have five digits on each limb.  (This is called 'pentadactyly', by the way.)  This includes primates, dogs, cats (don't forget the dew claw), wings of bats and birds, crocodiles, even whales(!).   Even horses hooves develop from one of five toes in the embryonic horse.\n\nWhy is this?  Because all four-limbed creatures developed from the same five-toed ancestor.  Yet another little piece of evidence for evolution to add to the pile.\n\nOh, one other little tidbit ... it's because we have 10 fingers that we developed a base-10 numbering system (that's why we call the 10 symbols we use in our system 'digits' (fingers), and where we get the word 'digital').

Womens feet. OH BROTHER! THAT IS A FACTOR! It goes hand in hand with 'what's up with women and men's laundry?'\nSame ballpark! uuuhhhhhh... especially with those Toes with crust build up, or lumpy shoes from un treated Toe Jams! Size is one thing... but there are other factors read from the feet!

b/c the bottom of our hands and feet have an extra thick layer of skin due to the fact that we use these surfaces so much, whereas our skin that has hair on it is thinner b/c it does not endure constant friction. \ntherefore, the palms and soles do not tan/burn

We can’t grow another toe because our body plan is set  genetically before we are born. The body grows according to that plan, not according to what the owner wants. The plan says we get 10 toes, so we get 10 toes.\nWe can no more grow another toe than grow taller simply because we want to. Growth is determined by the genetic plan. You can’t change it.

In the forensics field, the fingerprint is used to determine a person's identity. When they have a sample, they or the computer selects atleast 10-14 different points of reference (dots, bifurcations, islands, terminations, etc) and they compare them to the sample in question. If youre speaking in terms of practical use, the human finger is capable of sensing a difference of about 1000th of an inch. (When running it along a "smooth" surface). And I would have to agree that it does give the finger some grip. Almost like a tire. When we grip something wet, the grooves move the liquid away so you can grip it better. Id have to agree.

Human characteristics are the traits shared by all humans. While physical characteristics are how we describe any object, living or non-living. My human characteristics are that you have 10 fingers and a brain that can make them type, while my phsyical characteristics are that I have strawberry blond hair, freckles and blue eyes.

Midgets are small all over.  They have the same dimensions as 'normal' folk, proportionally.  Dwarfs may have small hands but 'normal' feet... or something like that.

To protect the edges of our toes. The area where the toenail is located is a place where the toe contcts objects the most. If we didn't have toenails or fingernails, the tips of our toes and fingers would be continuously bleeding and injured.

There is a chart for the hand and a chart for the foot. See links below.

There are 26 bones in the human foot (28 if you include the sesamoid bones at the base of the big toe). These are: the Talus, which connects to the tibia at the ankle; the Calcaneus, which forms the heel; the Navicular, Cuboid, and three Cuneiforms (Medial, Intermediate, and Lateral), which form the middle of the foot; the five Metatarsals, which radiate out to the toes; and 14 Phalanges (2-3-3-3-3), which form the toes.\n\n\nThere is a nice diagram of the foot at:\n\nhttp:// www.asianconnect.com.sg/health/mdasample/anat3.html\n\nand a color-coded X-radiogram of the foot at:\n\nhttp://indy.radiology.uiowa.edu/Providers/Textbooks/ JointFluoro/Ankle/Ankle.med.08.html

The phalanges aren't the fingers, they are the bones in your fingers.\nThere are twenty seven bones in your hand: eight carpals (the wrist) five metacarpals, five proximal phalanges, four medial phalanges (there's no medial in your thumb), and five distal phalanges.\nThe fingers are simply known as digits, from the latin 'digitorum'. I don't know the exact translation but it's to do with the fact you have ten of them.

similar structures with different functions...\n\nBats arms and human arms have similar structure, but different function. Bats wings fly and we use our hands for dexterity

It is hard to explain. Well i hope you know the numbers and how to count. Now raise ONE finger from your left hand ( yes if you want to you can use your middle finger). THen raise ONE from your right hand. Having done this, count them. You will see that there are 2 fingers raised and Not 3 fingers \n\nBy the way how old are you??.

of course it's a finger.  the word "thumb" is used to identify it.  just like pinky, index, fore finger.  the words are used to identify each digit.
