coccyx-the remains of the tail
cervical-support the neck (lift, bend and turn the head)
sacral- fused to pelvic, base of trunk and legs
lumbar- allow twisting and turning, provide attachment for back muscles
thoracic-short floating ribs
Cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral, coccyx
Cervical Thoracic Lumbar Sacral Coccyx
7 Cervical Vertebrae12 Thoracic Vertebrae5 Lumbar Vertebrae5 Sacral Vertebrae3-5 Coccyx Vertebrae (although these are usually fused together)
Vertebrae with several different parts such as: the cervical (at the top), the thoracic (after the cervical), then lumbar( after the thoracic) and to finish it up the coccyx/sacrum
Vertebrae are divided into sections: the atlas and axis account for the first cervical vertebrae, of which there are 7 in total; there are 12 thoracic vertebrae, 7 lumbar vertebrae, 1 sacrum (5 separate vertebrae in a baby), and 1 coccyx (4 separate vertebrae in a baby).
There are 7 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, a sacrum, and a coccyx.
Cervical - region of the neck Thoracic - region of the chest Lumbar - region of the waist Sacral - region of the sacrum Coccygeal - region of the tailbone
your spine is split into several different columns, they are: cervical thoracic lumbar coccyx
Cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral and coccygeal.
There are 7 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, 5 sacrum and 4 coccyx (fused) - making 33 bones in total.
Yes, not counting the sacrum or coccyx. 7 cervical + 12 thoracic + 5 lumbar = 24.
There are 33 vertebrae in the human spine. (7 cervicals, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, 5 that fuse into the sacrum and 4 that fuse into the coccyx.). The sacrum and coccyx are already fused into their respective bones at birth.There are 33 vertebrate in the human spine. There are 7 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, 5 that fuse into the sacrum, and 4 that fuse into the coccyx.
