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.
In human anatomy, the vertebral column (backbone or spine) is a column of 24 vertebrae, the sacrum, intervertebral discs, and the coccyx situated in the dorsal aspect of the torso, separated by spinal discs. It houses the spinal cord in its spinal canal.
The vertebrae (plural of vertebra) are the bones of the neck and back, also known as the backbone. They surround the spine of any animal that has one, including a human. The spinal column is made up of many vertebrae that allow flexibility in the back and protect the spinal cord from external damage. The function of the spinal column is to protect the soft spinal cord and to support the head upright. In humans, there are 26 total vertebrae : Cervical vertebrae: 7 Thoracic vertebrae: 12 Lumbar vertebrae: 5 Sacrum (fusion of five sacral vertebrae): 1 Coccyx (fusion of 4 coccygeal vertebrae, aka caudal vertebrae): 1

A vertabrae is an animal with a back bone. There are five classes of vertabrae: amphibeans, birds, fish, mamals, and reptiles.
33 vertebrae in the spinal cord of a human being
In human anatomy, the vertebral column (backbone or spine) is a column usually consisting of 24 articulating vertebrae.
The lumbar vertebrae are located in the lower back region of the human spine, between the thoracic vertebrae and the sacrum. There are five lumbar vertebrae (L1 to L5) that support the weight of the upper body and allow for bending and twisting movements of the trunk.
because during the growth of human beings the vertebral column outgrows the spinal chord. that's why we don't find the spinal cord starting from lower lumbar region where lumbar puncture is done.
There are 33 vertebrae in the spinal cord of a human being. They are broadly categorized into 5 areas. They are called the cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacrum & coccyx vertebra. The upper 3 areas have a total of 24 vertebrae, which includes 7 cervical vertebrae, 12 thoracic vertebrae & 5 lumbar vertebrae. Sometimes the lumbar region, may have an additional vertebra, it does happen - but it is rare. 5 vertebrae are fused together to form the sacrum & 3 vertebrae form the end of the spinal column which is the coccyx.
There is only one spinal cord in the human body. The human spinal column is made up of 33 bones - 7 vertebrae in the cervical region, 12 in the thoracic region, 5 in the lumbar region, 5 in the sacral region and 4 in the coccygeal region
The human adult vertebral column consists of 26 bones. There are 7 cervical vertebrae, 12 thoracic vertebrae, 5 lumbar vertebrae, and 2 that are collections of fused bones, the sacrum and the coccyx. An infant may have 32, 33, or 34 spinal bones present at birth.
