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.
Basilar artery is formed by the union of what two arteries?
vertebral arteries
How many vertebral arteries do humans have?
2
The basilic artery in the brain receives blood from what two arteries?
The left & right vertebral arteries.
What are the two vertebral arteries?
The vertebral arteries are branches from the subclavian arteries that travel up the spine in the foramen transversarium and into the skull in the formen magnum. They fuse at the level of the midbrain to form the basilar artery and then the posterior cerebral arteries. They supply blood to the brainstem, cerebellum and posterior portions of the brain.
What vertebral type containing foraminia in the transverse processes through which the vertabral arteries ascend to reach the brain?
Cervical Vertebra - Typical
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.
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.
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.

What two paired arteries enter the skull to supply the brain?
The anterior portions of the brain are supplied by the internal carotid arteries. The posterior portion of the brain is supplied by the vertebral arteries.
What does the transverse foramina provide a passageway for?
arteries
The basilic artery in the brain receives blood from what two arteries?
The left & right vertebral arteries.
Which vessel is formed when the vertebral arteries join together at the base of the skull?
The right and left vertebral arteries join together to form a single basilar artery at the base of the skull.
