What are The parts of the thoracic vertebrae that articulate with the ribs are?
The ribs articulate with the thoracic vertebrae. The thoracic vertebrae also articulate with each other.
How are thoracic 11 and 12 different from the other vertebrae?
Unlike all other thoracic vertebrae, 11th and 12th thoracic vertebrae lack articulation surfaces (for tubercle of ribs) on their transverse processes. The articulation facets (for head of rib) on the body of 11th and 12th thoracic vertebrae are large.
Lordosis affects the thoracic vertebrae?
Lordosis typically affects the lumbar spine, causing an excessive inward curve. It is less common for lordosis to affect the thoracic vertebrae, as the thoracic spine naturally has a slight outward curve called kyphosis. Any abnormal curve in the thoracic spine can lead to pain and other symptoms.
How are thoracic vertebrae 11 and 12 different from all the other thoracic vertebrae?
Thoracic vertebrae 11 and 12 are unique because they only have one costal facet on each side for articulating with ribs (compared to two on each side in other thoracic vertebrae). They also lack a transverse costal facet on their transverse process.
Which type of vertebra has facets that articulate with the tubercle of the ribs?
The thoracic vertebra
Are the first two vertebrae the only ones with names?
No, all of the vertebrae in the spine have names. In addition to the first two vertebrae (C1 and C2), the other vertebrae are named based on their location: cervical (C3-C7), thoracic (T1-T12), lumbar (L1-L5), sacral (S1-S5), and coccygeal (Co1-Co4).
Which feature distinguishes Uranus from other planets?
It rotates in opposite (retrograde) direction from other planets
Other than the coccyx. What are the four groups of vertebrae called?
Other than coccyx. What are the four groups of vertebrae called? In order: 1. Cervical 2. Lumber 3. Thoracic 4. Sacral Thank you
What is Mild levo rotoscoliosis of mid and lower lumbar?
Curvature of the vertebral column resulting from the column turning on its axis. The upper two vertebrae in the cervical spine, the atlas and the axis, differ from the other vertebrae because they are designed specifically for rotation. These two vertebrae are the reason your neck can move in so many directions. Mid Spine = Thoracic Lumbar Spine = Below the Thoracic vertebraes - your lumbar spine consists of 5 discs/vertebrae.
How many lumbar vertebrae are on the human body?
The human spine is made up of three parts, the cervical spine(neck), the thoracic(middle), and the lumbar (lower back). The lumbar consists of 5 vertebrae in the average adult human, but may also only have 4 or 6 vertebrae depending on the individual, although this is not as common.
How many cervical vertebrate does a horse have?
They have seven. A horse has 7 cervical vertebrae (neck) as do nearly all mammals, 18 thoracic vertebrae (along the longest part of the horse's back), 6 lumbar vertebrae (the general area above the horse's hips), and 5 sacral vertebrae (towards the tail (dock) area).
What is the highest dive into water in meters?
It is 58.28 metres by Rudolf Bok. But he suffered a fracture of the thoracic vertebrae and other internal injuries.
