1. The cartilage forms a cushion-like covering, spreading the load in the backbone which prevents the shock between bones.
2. The cartilage produces a slippery surface at the end of bones to reduce the friction when they are being rubbed together.
The presence of the discs and the S-shaped or springlike construction of the vertebral column prevent shock to the head in walking and running and provide flexibility to the body trunk.
This is probably a reference to the periodic table of the elements, which has columns. All the elements in a given column have the same configuration of valance electrons. There is a column of noble gases, a column of halogens, etc.
It is the efficiency of the column. The larger the number, the more theoretical plates the column possesses; a typical well-packed column with a 5-micrometer particle size porous packing in a 15cm x 46 mm column should provide10,000-20,000 plates. sorry. I forgot to put a point in there. It should be 4.5 mm, not 45
The length of the air column is usually increased slowly because of resonance.
Ni-NTA column is a nickel-nitriloacetic acid column that is used to bind polyhistidine residues in order to purify recombinant proteins. The polyhistidine sequence (six histidines in a row) will bind to nickel, which is in turn bound by the nitroloacetic acid. This immobilizes the recombinant protein in the column for later extraction.

vertebrae
In human anatomy, the vertebral column (backbone or spine) is a column usually consisting of 24 articulating vertebrae.

vertebrae
the vertebrae compose the spinal column (ie your back bone).
sacrum and coccyx
Spinal cord is also called vertebral column in vertebrates (humans and mammals.) It is made up of 33 vertebrae. Starting from top most 7 vertebrae makes cervical column,then 12 vertebrae makes thoracic column, then 5 vertebrae makes lumbar column. In the last part of pelvis, the sacral column has 9 fused vertebrae and a tailed portion of the tapering spinal cord is called coccygeal vertebra
The spinal column is made of 31-33 bones, some of which are fused. There are 7 cervical vertebrae, 12 thoracic vertebrae, 5 lumbar vertebrae, 5 sacral and 2-4 coccogeal vertebrae.
