Membranous bone. To remember which bones are membranous vs. cartilaginous, think of it this way: cartilage has no time to grow in the place of what will become membranous bones, though it does for cartilaginous. This means that membranous bone develops before cartilaginous bone. I don't know how true this is ontogenetically, but it works for me.
As membranous bone is the type of bone which develops first, it follows that it would be the type which provides the most important protection: cranial, vertebral, facial (excluding the mandible, I believe), and if I remember correctly, the ribs, sternum, and clavian bones are all membranous bones. Limb bones are all cartilaginous.
n.
A bone that forms directly in membranous connective tissue, as some cranial bones, instead of developing from cartilage.

there are three different types of vertebral bones, the thorasic (medium and 12 of them in human body), cervical ( smallest bones and there are 5 of them in the human body) and the lumbar (the largest and there are 3 of them in the human body )
The vertebrae are classified as "irregular bones." This is in contrast to long bones, sesamoid bones, short bones, and flat bones.
A vertebra bone is a small fragment of the spinal column.
It is a gliding joint!
Cartilaginous joint
The vertebrae.
compact
Irregular
vertibrase
what type of joint is between bodies of vertebrae ? cartilaginous joint
An articulation between a vertebrae and a rib
What is degenerative joint disorder in the vertebrae? and what can it do to a human?
The cervical(neck) vertebrae. The joint formed by C1 and C2, also known as the atlas and axis.
The Odontoid Process is articulated with the C2 vertebrae [Axis] & is a synovial joint-type. The atlas [C1] is also a synovial-type articulation, but is associated with the Occipital Condyle [directly with the skull]
pivot
Gliding joints are found between vertebrae except for the first two which have a pivoit joint.
what type of joint is between bodies of vertebrae ? cartilaginous joint
Pivot joint formed between the atlas and the axis (first two vertebrae)
An articulation between a vertebrae and a rib
What is degenerative joint disorder in the vertebrae? and what can it do to a human?
A ball and socket joint allows twisting and turning side to side. It humans this would be the hip joint
This is called a gliding joint.ball and socket
The knee joint does not contain vertebrae.. that would be the spine.
The cervical(neck) vertebrae. The joint formed by C1 and C2, also known as the atlas and axis.
The Odontoid Process is articulated with the C2 vertebrae [Axis] & is a synovial joint-type. The atlas [C1] is also a synovial-type articulation, but is associated with the Occipital Condyle [directly with the skull]
There is only one pivot joint in the body and it is located in the neck. It is the joint between the first and second cervical vertebrae also known as atlas and axis respectively. Axis has a the "peg" part of the pivot projecting upwards and atlas has the hole around it. This is the joint that allows the heart to rotate left to right.There are two pivot joints. One between C1 and C2 of the vertebrae. The second in the forearm between the ulna and radius.
