The human spinal cord is protected by the bony spinal column. The spinal column is made up of bones called vertebrae. The spinal cord itself is made of neurons, similar to the brain itself.
Membranes called meninges cover and protect the brain and spinal cord. The skull and spinal column also protect the brain and spinal cord, respectively. The spinal cord is made up by individual vertebrae.
