Ina cervical vertebrae what is transverse foramina?
A foramen is a hole in a bone. The transverse foramen are holes in the sides the the neck vertebrae that the vertebral artery and vein and various nerves go through.
A special feature present on the transverse process of cervical vertebrae?
The transverse processes of the cervical vertebrae are pierced by a "foramen transversarium" through which the vertebral artery passes. The transverse processes of the cervical vertebrae are pierced by a "foramen transversarium" through which the vertebral artery passes.
Does the thoracic and lumbar vertebra have a transverse foramina?
A transverse foramen is located on the transverse process of cervicle vertebra. The vertebral foramen is the large (more anterior) opening in the body of a vertebra through which the "spinal chord" passes. when the vertebra are stacked in the vertebral column, the series of vertebral foramen is called the vertebral canal.
Cervical vertebrae can be distinguished from other types by the?
- Transverse foramen (holes in the transverse processes through which travels the vertebral artery) - Uncinate processes (lip on the supero-lateral aspects of vertebral bodies)
The cervical spine is made up of how many cervical vertebrae?
The cervical spine is made up of seven cervical vertebrae. These are numbered(C1-C7) and are the smallest of the true vertebrae. The third through sixth cervical vertebrae have characteristics in common. The first, second, and seventh are considered special cervical vertebrae, and have different characteristics.
Type of vertebra containing foramina in the transverse processes through which the vertebral arteries ascend to reach the brain?
Cervical vertebra - typical The cervical vertebrae contain foramina in the transverse processes, called foramina transversarium.

What part of the vertebral column contains transverse foramen?
Cervical vertebrae possess transverse foramina to allow for the vertebral arteries to pass through on their way to the foramen magnum to end in thecircle of Willis.

Transverse foramen?
Foramen lateral to the pedicle area. ONly cervical vertebrae have transverse foramen. Therefore, only cervical vertebrae have three holes. All other vertebrae have just one hole. The vertebral artery passes through these foramen.

Where is the formina?
vertebrae Inter means "between", vertebral obviously means vertebrae as mentioned above, and foramina is plural for foramen, which is a hole. Intervertebral foramina are formed in the space between two vertebrae. When two or more vertebral bones are stacked, the intervertebral foramina would be inferior to the pedicles of the superior vertebrae and superior to the pedicles of the inferior vertebrae. It will create a hole that goes between the two vertebrae horizontally. The spinal cord goes through the vertebral foramen vertically, and the nerve roots slip out horizontally through the intervertebral foramina.

The third through sixth cervical vertebrae have characteristics in common. The first, second, and seventh are considered special cervical vertebrae, and have different characteristics.
What structure passes through this opening in c1-c7?
The spinal cord passes through the opening in the cervical vertebrae C1-C7.
What is the passageway for vertebral arteries in cervical vertebrae?
The descending thoracic aorta passes down the thorax on the left side of the vertebrae.It enters in the diaphragm in the abdominal cavity called the aortic hiatus and then becomes the abdominal aorta.It then divides into the right and left common iliac arteries at the lower border of the 4th lumbar vertebra. Then divides again at the 5th and last lumbar intevertebral disc into the internal and external iliac artery.
What veins pass through the transverse vertebral foramina?
No veins pass through the the transverse foraminae. The vertebral arteries, however, pass through these spaces on their way to the brain.
