There is no C8/8th cervical vertebra. There are 7 cervical vertebra but there are 8 cervical nerves. C8 refers to the 8th cervical nerve which emerges just just below the C7.

What is the brachial plexus?

The Brachial Plexus is the nerve plexus from which supplies the upper limb. Its root supply is C5 to T1. This means that the nerves which make it up leave the spinal chord at all the vertebrae between the 5th Cervical Vertebrae and the 1st Thoracic Vertebrae. Brachial plexus is a radical regrouping of the nerve fibers that are araising from the vental rami of C7 to C8 and additionally from T1. Through this network of nerves the entire upper limb will get its nerve supply.
