∙ 13y agoIn a child:
7 Cervical, 12 Thoracic, 5 Lumber, 5 Sacral and 3-5 Coccygeal vertebrae.... therefore 32-34
In an adult, the sacral and coccygeal vertebrae are fused to form the sacrum and coccyx, therefore adults have:
7 Cervical, 12 Thoracic, 5 Lumbar vertebrae.... therefore 24, plus a sacrum and coccyx
