the vertebral arch
The pedicles, laminae and the intervertebral foramina form the vertebral arch.
The sides of the vertebral arch are formed by the pedicles and laminae, which extend from the vertebral body to enclose the spinal cord within the spinal canal. These structures provide protection and support for the spinal cord and nerves.
The form laminae is the plural form; the singular form is lamina.
The plural form of lamina papyracea is laminae papyraceae.

The body of each vertebra is attached to a bony ring consisting of several parts. A bony projection on either side of the vertebral body called the pedicle supports the arch that protects the spinal canal. The laminae are the parts of the vertebrae that form the back of the bony arch that surrounds and covers the spinal canal. There is a transverse process on either side of the arch where some of the muscles of the spinal column attach to the vertebrae. The spinous process is the bony portion of the vertebral body that can be felt as a series of bumps in the center of a person's neck and back.
The noun 'lamina' is a singular noun, a word for one.The accepted plural forms are luminas and luminae.

Laminated rock is a type of sedimentary rock structure that features laminae. Laminae are representative of periods of sedimentation where thin beds with differing grain size, color or lithology are deposited. They usually appear as a succesive sequence of parallel banding of 10mm or less in a rock sample or facies.
