First . . . one spinal bone is a vertebra (VERT uh brah). Multiple spinal bones are vertebrae (VERT uh bray). An animal with a spine is said to be a vertebrate animal. Vertebrae are separated by spinal discs which act as shock absorbers.
Think of them as gel-filled shock absorbers between the bones that make up your back-bone, your spine.
Shock absorbers
Intervertebral discs are the fibrous, elastic tissue that lie between each of the bones in the spine. They function as shock absorbers.
mabye they "absorb shock!" 2nd Answer: In actual fact, shock absorbers do not absorb shock: the springs do that. The "shock absorbers" dampen rebound (Bouncing). In a bike, the spring is built right around the dampener part.
You have the cartilages in the joints, which act as mechanical shock absorbers. But then you have other functional shock absorbers. You have arches in the foot, which act as shock absorbers. Then when you jump down, you have that spring like movement of the legs. That act as a shock absorbers.

( 2 ) shock absorbers on the front suspension and ( 2 ) shock absorbers on the rear suspension ( and if it's the same as my 1995 Ford Explorer there is a short " shock absorber " that is sideways connected to the rear differential that I didn't bother having changed )
TLIF or Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion is a surgery used to stabilize the spine. This procedure is used to stabilize the shock absorbers between the vertebrae.
The 1995 Buick Skylark is equipped with rear shock absorbers. There will be struts on the front of the vehicle.
