No.
The cervical spine is in the neck and is above the lumbar spine, which is in the low back. Because we reference things from anatomical position, which is standing upright, and because the term "inferior" is used to denote things that are below, that statement would be incorrect. Therefore, we could correctly say the cervical spine is superior, or rostral, to the lumbar spine. We could also say that the lumbar spine is inferior, or caudal, to the cervical spine.
What else can I help you with?
Where in the spine do most injuries occur?
Most spinal injuries occur in the cervical (neck) and lumbar (lower back) regions of the spine. The cervical spine is particularly vulnerable due to its mobility and range of motion, while the lumbar spine bears a lot of weight and can be prone to injury from lifting or twisting motions.
Why are the cervical and lumbar regions enlarged in the human spine?
The cervical and lumbar regions of the human spine are enlarged to provide support and flexibility for the head and torso, as these areas bear the most weight and movement in the body.
What has seven components that is unfused?
The spine is composed of seven unfused vertebrae in the neck region known as the cervical spine.
2 The Thoracic vertebrae is inferior to the lumbar vertebrae?
the thoracic spine is above the lumbar spine which means ALL thoracic vertebrae are superior to the lumbar vertebrae.

Were is scoliosis located in the spine?
Scoliosis is a condition characterized by an abnormal lateral curvature of the spine. It can occur at any level of the spine, including the cervical (neck), thoracic (upper back), and lumbar (lower back) regions. The most common location for scoliosis is the thoracic spine, which is the upper and middle part of the back.
Why are the cervical and lumbar regions enlarged in the human spine?
The cervical and lumbar regions of the human spine are enlarged to provide support and flexibility for the head and torso, as these areas bear the most weight and movement in the body.
What is the proper order of vertebrae from superior to inferior?
Cervical Thoracic Lumbar Sacral
What has seven components that is unfused?
The spine is composed of seven unfused vertebrae in the neck region known as the cervical spine.
How many segment make up the spine?
cervical, thoracic, lumbar and sacral.
Does scoliosis have a curve in it?
Scoliosis is curvature of the spine, either cervical, thoracic and lumbar
2 The Thoracic vertebrae is inferior to the lumbar vertebrae?
the thoracic spine is above the lumbar spine which means ALL thoracic vertebrae are superior to the lumbar vertebrae.
What are the three sections of the backbone?
The normal anatomy of the spine is usually described by dividing up the spine into 3 major sections: the cervical, the thoracic, and the lumbar spine. (Below the lumbar spine is a bone called the sacrum, which is part of the pelvis). Each section is made up of individual bones called vertebrae. There are 7 cervical vertebrae, 12 thoracic vertebrae, and 5 lumbar vertebrae.Anatomy of the Spine
Each part of the spine?
The cervical bones (1-5) run from the base of the skull to the bottom of the neck, roughly. The thoracic vertebrae (1-12) run from the end of the cervical spine to the lumbar spine. The lumbar vertebrae (1-5) run from the end of the thoracic spine to the tailbone.
How many spinal curves are there?
There are four curves in the spine. They are the Cervical, Thoracic, Lumbar and Pelvic curves.
