Vertebrae are categorized by where they are located. The top 7 are called cervical vertebrae (neck), the next 12 are thoracic vertebrae (chest), and the last 5 are lumbar vertebrae (back).
Actually that is good question come to think of it your backbone (spine) is a vertabrae and that is the only vertebrae in your body.
Humans typically have 33 vertebrae, but only 24 of these are movable. The first 7 are cervical vertebrae in the neck, followed by 12 thoracic vertebrae in the mid-back, and 5 lumbar vertebrae in the lower back. Below the lumbar region are the sacrum and coccyx, which are fused vertebrae.
Almost all the joints between vertebrae are movable. The joints between the cervical vertebrae and lumber vertebrae have fairly good movement. Between thoracic vertebrae only you have less movement. But then they do move on each other.
Yes. The human spine is made up of three parts, the cervical spine(neck), the thoracic(middle), and the lumbar (lower back). The lumbar consists of 5 vertebrae in the average adult human, but may also only have 4 or 6 vertebrae depending on the individual, although this is not as common. There can be sacralization of the 5th lower lumbar resulting in only 4 lumber vertebrae, or a vertebrae of the sacrum where the individual has an extra 6th lumbar vertebrae. While all adults have 7 cervical vertebrae there is much more variation in the thoracic and lumbar vertebrae. The thoracic too may have a 13th vertebrae resulting in an extra rib. And as mentioned before the lumbar may have 4-6 vertebrae depending on the individual.
The 12 vertebrae located under the clavicle are called thoracic vertebrae. They make up the middle segment of the vertebral column and are numbered T1 through T12. These vertebrae provide structural support for the rib cage and protect the organs of the thoracic cavity.
The cervical and lumbar vertebrae do not articulate with the ribs. The thoracic vertebrae are the only ones that articulate with the ribs.
The only bones (vertebrae) in your neck are from the spinal column. These are better known as the Cervical vertebra, of which you have seven, medically speaking they are labelled C1 - C7.
There are only 2 cervical vertebrae that have common names: the atlas and the axis, they act as the pivot that allows you to turn your head.
only the ones that have the names of colors
The characters in Final Fantasy are generic 'Warriors of Light', the only names they have are the ones you give them.
Citron,renault and peuchot are the only ones i know! ! superdiva08
Airel,Arigur,Amerigir.Sorry tis is the only ones i can think..
The term also applies to first names.
The vertebrae.
There are 31 pairs of spinal nerves because the first cervical nerve exits above the first cervical vertebra. The remaining spinal nerves exit below their corresponding vertebrae. Therefore, there is one more pair of spinal nerves than there are vertebrae in the spinal column.
