Thoracic Vertebra

Ribs
The ribs, the thoracic vertebrae and the sternum, some would also consider the clavicle part of the thoracic cage.
The Ribs primary function is to protect the thoracic viscera, or the heart and lungs. The pelvis' main function is to protect the pelvic viscera
The visualized bony structures are unremarkable

A bear coz a horse is bony
It's the non-bony extension (continuation) of the ribs, that connects the ribs and the sternum (breast bone), thus forming a complete framework for the thoracic space.

Facets are bony projections on each side of the vertebrae of the spine. The space between one facet and the next form joints along the sides of the spinal column. As the body ages the facets may become arthritic. When this occurs one or more facet joint may become misaligned. Misaligned facets can cause the surrounding muscles to tighten and spasm causing Back pain. Arthritic facets may also develop bony growths (arthrosis) that narrow the spaces where spinal nerves exit the spine. This narrowing (stenosis) can squeeze the nerve causing pain in the back or down one or both legs. Severe facet disease means that the condition is advanced causing significant discomfort and pain.

The bony thorax protects the heart and liver. Wrong... the bone thorax protects the heart and LUNGS as it also allows the respiratory muscle to create a vacuum that will draw air into the lungs. while the Ribs withing in the bone thorax will protect not only the thoracic organs, but as well the spleen, most of the liver and to some extent the kidneys.
yes b/c a bony fish has to have a bony body
