The manubrium, gladiolus, and xiphoid process are the three constituents of what part of the human body?

The sternum consists of the manubrium, gladiolus, and xiphoid process. The xiphoid process is a particularly interesting part of the body, as cartilage at birth that becomes a bone later in life. It's located where the lower ribs attach to the breastbone, and its tip resembles a sword.
