No, actually - the Arabian breed has one less cervical vertebra than all other breeds with 7 rather than 8 cervical (neck) vertebrae.
All horses have a skeletal system, they are vertebrae
Cervical vertebrae. All mammals have the same number of cervical vertebrae.
Overall, sacral vertebrae problems are not common in horses. However, it is possible for the sacral vertebrae to become fractured, dislocated or infected, all of which can compress the pelvic limb spinal nerves that run through the sacral vertebrae.
no it does not
Because the tailbone is technically part of the spine and consists of vertebrae.
Fifty four (54) vertebrae for the typical horse. Cervical vertebrae: 7: the neck Thoracic vertebrae: 18 : the back, above rib cage Lumbar vertebrae: 6: the back, just above and forward of rear hip bones Sacral vertebrae (5 fused together - sacrum): just above and behind rear hip bones Coccygeal vertebrae (average 18): the tail source: http://www.kersur.net/~santa/skeletalsystem.html source: http://www.allabouthorses.com/horse-health/injuries/horse-anatomy.html
The sternum of a horse has 54 sternebrae, and a 205 bones all together. Horses also have forelimbs and hind limbs that connect to the vertebrae. 60% of the names for the horse bone are the same as the human name.
All domestic and feral horses belong to the same order as they are all the same species. A horses order is Perissodactyla.

a human being has 33 vertebrae all together including neck to spine and everything. and then for a humans neck is the same as a giraffe which is 7 vertebrae in their neck since they are both mammals the vertebrae are just different sizes.
All mammals (dogs, cats, horses, cows, people) are vertebrates. They all have a spinal column made of bones called vertebra.
The majority of mammals have seven cervical vertebrae (bones in the neck); this includes bats, giraffes, whales, and humans. The few exceptions include the manatee and the two-toed sloth, which have only six cervical vertebrae, and the three-toed sloth with nine cervical vertebrae.
