The vertebral column is made of 7 cervical, 12 thoracic, and 5 lumbar vertebrae. Additionally the sacrum, or tailbone, consists of 5 vertebrae that are wholly or partially fused together.
There are 7 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.
The human cervical spine is made up of seven vertebrae. In fact, nearly all mammals have seven cervical vertebrae, even giraffes.
In a human it is 7 vertebrae that make up the bones in the neck. Additional "factoids": Giraffes also have only 7 vertebrae in their necks/cervical spine, the difference is each one can be ten inches long! Swans can have as many as 25 vertebral bones in the neck and amphibians can have only one. There are 7 vertebra in the cervical region.
Almost all humans are born with 33 separate vertebrae. By adulthood, most have only 24. This is due to the fusion of the vertebrae in certain parts of the spine during normal development. Different textbooks give different answers to this question. The confusion comes from the fact that the two lowest vertebrae -- the sacrum and the coccyx -- are each one bone, but they are made up from smaller bones fused together.There are 24 separate vertebrae; then there is the sacrum, which is formed from 5 fused vertebrae; and finally the coccyx, which is formed from between 3-5 fused vertebrae. Therefore, if the coccyx and sacrum are each classed as one vertebra, then there are 26 vertebrae. If the fused vertebrae are all counted separately, then there are 32-34 vertebrae. 32The human spine has 7 cervical, 12 Thoracic and 5 Lumbar vertebrae as well as 5 (fused) in the sacrum and another 4 (fused) in the coccyx which totals 33.33 in total. 7 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar 5 sacral+4 coccygeal (fused)24, and are grouped under the names cervical (7 vertebrae), thoracic (12 vertebrae) and lumbar (5 vertebrae), according to the regions they occupy. -WikipediaThere's a total of 33 vertebrae - comprising... 7 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, 5 sacral and 4 coccyx (fused)The correct answer is 33But usually there are "fused" bones (probably a bad thing) during our human development.I should point out that this number 33 has significance in many other areas besides just the actual number of our human vertebrae.thirty-three (33)vertebraeinhumansThere are 7 cervical vertebrae, 12 thoracic vertebrae, 5 lumbar vertebrae, 5 sacral vertebrae and 4 coccygeal vertebrae. That's a total of 33 vertebrae.333326 vertebrae make up the spine. Oddly enough, we have the same amount of vertebrae as giraffes do!in the human spine there is 7 cervical, 12 thoracic, and 5 lumbar vertebae.The spine consist of 24 moving segments plus the sacrum and the coccyx.33. :)Vertebral ColumnCervical Vertebrae - 7Thoracic Vertebrae - 12Lumbar Vertebrae - 5Sacrum -1Coccyx - 1Total Vertebral Column = 26In the human vertebral column, there exist the following vertebrae:7 Cervical Vertebrae12 Thoracic Vertebrae5 Lumbar VertebraeAlthough these are the vertebrae commonly recognized as the spine, there is also the sacrum (In layman's terms: the arrowhead shaped bone structure at the bottom of the spine, before the tailbone). The sacrum is actually made up of vertebrae which are fused together to make a more whole bone structure.5 vertebrae make up the sacrumAlso, the coccyx (tailbone) is considered another vertebrae1 vertebrae in the coccyx
it sometimes depends on the person, but there are roughly 33 in the average personit also depends what you count as vertabrae, as some people might tell you just 24Individual vertebrae named according to region and position, from superior to inferiorCervical - 7 vertebrae (C1-C7) C1 is known as "atlas" and supports the head, C2 is known as "axis"Possesses bifid spinous processes, which is absent in C7Small-bodiedThoracic - 12 vertebrae (T1-T12) Distinguished by the presence of coastal facets for the articulation of the heads of ribsBody is intermediate in size between the cervical and lumbar vertebraeLumbar - 5 vertebrae (L1-L5) Has a large bodyDoes not have coastal facets nor transverse process foraminaSacral - 5 (fused) vertebrae (S1-S5)Coccygeal - 4 (3-5) (fused) vertebrae (Tailbone)

There are 7 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, a sacrum, and a coccyx.
You would call it a neck bone, I suppose, but the "Neck Bone" has many other bones with it. Though it is all made up as the Cervical vertebrae
The vertebrae in the neck are called cervicle vertebrae. There are 6 of them altogether. The first two (going downward from the skull) are called the atlas and the axis. The rest are just name by their order. Eg: C1 (Atlas), C2 (Axis), C3, C4.....
9 Frogs typically have nine vertebrae. This number can be less depending on the type of frog. There are times when the tailbone is included as part of the vertebrae, which means the total number may be recorded as up to 10.
Assuming you mean vertebrae; The human spine is made up of 33 vertebrae (Sungular: vertebra.) There are four sections of vertebrae. The cervical vertebrae is is made up of 7 vertebrae and makes up the neck. The thoracic vertebrae makes up the upper back and contains 12 vertebrae. the lumbar vertebrae area makes up the lower back between the thoracic vetrtabrae and the sacral curve, made up of 5 vertebrae. Lastly, The tailbone area is below the lumbar section and called the sacral curve. 5 vertebrae make up the sacrum and 4 are fused to make the tailbone. All vertebrae but the sacral curve section are separated by invertebral discs.
Vertebrae with several different parts such as: the cervical (at the top), the thoracic (after the cervical), then lumbar( after the thoracic) and to finish it up the coccyx/sacrum
Most mammals have 7 Cervical vertebrae that make up their necks. A Cheetah follows the majority with 7.
There are seven bones in the neck that make up what is called the "Cervical vertebrae". They are referred to as C1 thru C7 which is short for "cervical 1 thru cervical 7". The neck also has one more bone called the Hyoid bone.
