Cervical vertebrae may also be called neck bones.
You back bone refers to the spinal column in the human skeleton. The spine is made up of 24 vertebrae and can be divided into three parts: the Cervical spine (top), the thoracic spine (middle) and the lumbar (lower back).
The only bones (vertebrae) in your neck are from the spinal column. These are better known as the Cervical vertebra, of which you have seven, medically speaking they are labelled C1 - C7.
Vertebrae are divided into sections: the atlas and axis account for the first cervical vertebrae, of which there are 7 in total; there are 12 thoracic vertebrae, 7 lumbar vertebrae, 1 sacrum (5 separate vertebrae in a baby), and 1 coccyx (4 separate vertebrae in a baby).
They are called vertebrae. Specifically in the neck they are called cervical vertebrae, the lower back are called lumbar vertebrae and the mid back around the ribcage are called thoracic vertebrae.
The origins of the latissimus dorsi are: - spinous processes of the lower six thoracic vertebrae - lumbar vertebrae - sacral vertebrae - lower three or four ribs
The upper back vertebrae are also known as the thoracic vertebrae.
another name for backbone is vertebrae column
Upper Vertebrae
The vetebrae of the lower back are called lumbar vertebrae. Lower than that, the vertebrae are fused together in the sacrum, and the lowest part of the spine is the tailbone or coccyx.
Back Bone: your spine...made of spinal vertebrae
Yes, it is also known as vertebrae C1.
Your back bone is also known as the spine which is made up of 33 vertebrae, the sacrum, intervertebral discs, and the coccyx. There are three sections of vertebrae known as the; the cervical vertebrae (neck), the thoracic vertebrae (middle back) and the lumbar vertebrae (lower back).
Spine or the individual bones that make it up are called Vertebrae (singular: vertebra).
You back bone refers to the spinal column in the human skeleton. The spine is made up of 24 vertebrae and can be divided into three parts: the Cervical spine (top), the thoracic spine (middle) and the lumbar (lower back).
Vertebra (plural vertebrae) is the scientific name for one of the bones that make up the spinal column.
Vertebrae or spine.
There are only 2 cervical vertebrae that have common names: the atlas and the axis, they act as the pivot that allows you to turn your head.
