Stapes One in a Krillion

6 letters · 1 word · ~2s to type · 58 accepted answers on the sheet

Leave the textbook headline for later — it is usually Plankton. We would type Stapes: One in a Krillion, +100, 6 letters, about 2 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Femur, Rib, Skull, or Spine — those are Plankton. It is also the One in a Krillion on this sheet, so the rare pick and the typeable pick are the same.
