How many bones are there in an adult human backbone?
The human adult vertebral column consists of 26 bones. There are 7 cervical vertebrae, 12 thoracic vertebrae, 5 lumbar vertebrae, and 2 that are collections of fused bones, the sacrum and the coccyx. An infant may have 32, 33, or 34 spinal bones present at birth.
How many discs are in the human vertibra?
There are normally thirty-three (33) vertebrae in humans, including the five that are fused to form the sacrum (the others are separated by intervertebral discs) and the four coccygeal bones that form the tailbone. The upper three regions comprise the remaining 24, and are grouped under the names cervical (7 vertebrae), thoracic (12 vertebrae) and lumbar (5 vertebrae), according to the regions they occupy. This number is sometimes increased by an additional vertebra in one region, or it may be diminished in one region, the deficiency often being supplied by an additional vertebra in another. The number of cervical vertebrae is, however, very rarely increased or diminished. With the exception of the first and second cervical, the true or movable vertebrae (the upper three regions) present certain common characteristics that are best studied by examining one from the middle of the thoracic region.

How many vertebrae are in a black person?
An African human is just like a human from any other part of the world. All humans have 33 Vertebrae split into 5 regions. The top 7 are called the Cervical Vertebrae, then Next 12 are called the Thoracic Vertebrae, then the 5 Lumbar Vertebrae. All the vertebrae mentioned so far are free individual bones that are joined at their Vertebral Bodies by special cartilagenous joints called Intervertebral Disks. The next region down is the Sacral region (or Sacrum) within which all 5 vertebrae are fused to form effectively one bone. And the final 4 vertebrae are also fused to oneanother to form a structure known as the Coccyx. This adds up to a total of 33 vertebrae, present in all healthy human being. In plainer terms, healthy babies are born with 33 vertebrae, and through fusion a healthy adult is left with 26.
