Five lumbar vertebrae.
The lumbar vertebrae are located in the lower back region of the human spine, between the thoracic vertebrae and the sacrum. There are five lumbar vertebrae (L1 to L5) that support the weight of the upper body and allow for bending and twisting movements of the trunk.
The lumbar section of a typical human spine contains five vertebrae, known as L1 to L5.
There are typically five lumbar vertebrae in a normal adult human spine. The lumbar vertebrae are located in the lower part of the spine, below the thoracic vertebrae and above the sacrum.
Type Human Anatomy
The human spine is made up of three parts, the cervical spine(neck), the thoracic(middle), and the lumbar (lower back). The lumbar consists of 5 vertebrae in the average adult human, but may also only have 4 or 6 vertebrae depending on the individual, although this is not as common.
5 .
The lumbar region of the vertebral column contains 5 vertebrae (the bones of the spine).
the thoracic spine is above the lumbar spine which means ALL thoracic vertebrae are superior to the lumbar vertebrae.
The lumbar vertebrae are the backbones of the lower back.
lumbar: L1,L2,L3,L4,L5 sacrum coccyx
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).
A human has 12 thoracic vertebrae, located in the middle section of the spine between the cervical and lumbar vertebrae.
