The vertebral canal is the hollow space within the spinal column that houses the spinal cord, while the foramen are openings in the vertebrae through which nerves pass.
The main difference between the vertebral foramen and the intervertebral foramen in the spinal column is that the vertebral foramen is a single opening within each vertebra that allows the spinal cord to pass through, while the intervertebral foramen are openings located between adjacent vertebrae that allow spinal nerves to exit the spinal cord and travel to the rest of the body.
Yes, the vertebral venous plexus can pass through the foramen magnum along with the spinal cord and its covering membranes. This network of veins can exit the skull through the foramen magnum, providing a pathway for blood flow between the brain and the vertebral column.
When you look on the side of a vertebral column, the intervertebral foramen is an opening that can be found between the two bodies and inferior articular processes of an adjacent, stacked pair of vertebrae. (There is a picture of the intervertebral foramen attached in the related links) A Way to Remember: Inter means between Vertebral means pertaining to the vertebrae Foramen means hole It literally means "hole between the vertebrae!"
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.
Spinal nerves exit the vertebral column through small openings called intervertebral foramina located between adjacent vertebrae.

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.
Human beings have a vertebral column of which the snakes do not have.
Occipital bone in the skull. the obturator foramen is where your skull articulates with the vertebral column.
The articulations of the human skull and vertebral column consist of a series of amphiarthrodial joints between the vertebral bodies, and a series of diathrodial joints between the vertebral arches. The articulations of the rat skull and vertebral column consist of cervical vertebrae which have small, transverse processes containing a hole through which nerves and blood vessels pass.

The vertebral column is inferior to the skull.
the sternum is anterior to the vertebral column
the sternum is anterior to the vertebral column
because during the growth of human beings the vertebral column outgrows the spinal chord. that's why we don't find the spinal cord starting from lower lumbar region where lumbar puncture is done.
