Vertebrae are divided into sections: the atlas and axis account for the first cervical vertebrae, of which there are 7 in total; there are 12 thoracic vertebrae, 7 lumbar vertebrae, 1 sacrum (5 separate vertebrae in a baby), and 1 coccyx (4 separate vertebrae in a baby).

How many bones in a human vertebral column?
They are usually divided into 3 groups: Cervical (7, Neck) Thoracic (12, Chest) Lumber (5, Abdomen) They are then given numbers starting at the top (eg. C1 (Cervical 1), C2, C3, T1, L3 ect.) Some have individual names like 'Atlas' or 'Axis' but this is uncommon.
Another names for neck bones?
The only bones (vertebrae) in your neck are from the spinal column. These are better known as the Cervical vertebra, of which you have seven, medically speaking they are labelled C1 - C7.
How many vertebrae are in the human body?
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.

What is the name of the spin bone?
The spinal column consists of 33 irregular bones called vertebrae. Starting from the neck, there are seven cervical vertebrae. The first two vertebrae have specific names and are called the atlas and axis respectively. The next 12 vertebrae are called thoracic vertebrae, followed by five lumbar vertebrae, which are the largest of the spinal bones. Next, there are approximately five sacral vertebrae that are separate from each other as a young child, but fuse together as one bone called the sacrum in adults. Finally, the coccyx, more commonly called the tailbone, consists of 3-5 small bones that fuse together in adults.
What are the bones in your back bone called?
What is often called the spine refers to a group of bone known as the vertebral column. This column is composed of vertebrae, the sacrum, and the coccyx. 2nd Answer: The spine is more specifically composed of the neck bones, or "C" vertebrae, so-called because their true names are "Cervical". There are 5 of these, the top two being also called the Atlas and the Axis. Next, named after the thorax of the body are the thoracic, or "T" vertebrae. There are 12 of these, T-1 through T-12. The small of the back, or Lumbar area, is composed of 5 "L", or Lumbar bones. The two spinal section between the 2 rear bones of the hips is actually part of the spine: The Sacrum. There are usually 5 "S" or Sacral vertebrae, and they are usually all fused together in adulthood. They sit like a wedge between the hipbones. And at the very bottom are the 3 or 4 bones of the coccyx, or "Tailbone". These coccygial bones are also fused together by adulthood.
