No, it is made up of 7 cervical vertebrae, 12 thoracic vertebrae and 5 lumbar vertebrae.

The Spine is made up of many smaller bones, which is what allows flexing and movement of the spine. Please see the related links for a detailed picture of the bones that make up the spine.
if the spine consists of a long bone we cudent bend our back
Each bone in my spine is called one "vertebra". Two or more are called "vertebrae".
If the spine was one continuous bone, we would be very restricted in our upper body movements. The jointed vertebrae allow flexibility.
The weight of a bone in chicken thigh will vary with each piece. On average, one piece should weigh around 5.5 oz.
A 'Vertebra' is one bone in a spine. 'Vertebrae' (ver-tuh-bray) is a word for more than one vertebra, as in, "There are 12 vertebrae in the thoracic part of the spine." Or, "His second cervical vertebra was fractured".
Did you mean "vertebrae"?"A vertebra (plural: vertebrae) an individual bone in the flexible column that defines vertebrate animals, e.g. humans."Definition from Wikipedia.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertebrae
The primary bone in the buttocks is the sacrum, which is a triangular-shaped bone at the base of the spine. It connects the spine to the hip bones and forms the back part of the pelvis. Additionally, the ischium, one of the three bones that make up each hip bone, contributes to the structure of the buttocks. Together, these bones provide support and structure to the pelvic region.
-Allows more movement -If you break 1 vertebrae it is alot better than breaking the one long hallow bone
Do you mean one " piece" of bone? If the spine were solid it would be inflexible and our range of motion would be reduced. We could not bend at the waist or bend our necks or anywhere in between.
The bones either in the sacral region or the lumbar region of the spine (lower part of the back) are affected by Spina Bifida, not just one particular bone.
