What is asymmetric sacralization of vertebra on the right.?
Asymmetric sacralization of vertebra on the right refers to a condition where one of the lumbar vertebrae, often the fifth lumbar vertebra (L5), fuses partially or completely with the sacrum on the right side, leading to an asymmetrical alignment. This can result in altered biomechanics of the lower spine and pelvis, potentially causing pain or discomfort. The condition may be congenital or acquired and can affect mobility and posture. Diagnosis typically involves imaging studies, such as X-rays or MRI, to assess the extent of the sacralization.
Connects left ribs to right ribs?
The only thing that connects the left and the right (1-10) is the sternum in the middle and the vertebrae in the back. 10-12 are only connected by the vertebrae between them.
Is spinal fluid extracted from the lumbar vertebrae for spinal tap?
Yes, that's right.
What is found only in the cervical vertebrae?
In the cervical and thoracic area of your spine. The cervical vertebrae starts right under your skull (following what's called the occipital foramen/foramen magnum). There are 7 cervical verterbrae and they end aproximatively under your neck (in the place where you feel a small circular prominence). Right under there are the thoracic vertebrae, in the number of 12. They end, let's say, at the upper part of your lower back.
What are differences between vertebrae and invertebrate animals?
A Vertabrae has a backbone an invertabrae does not. She Waz right :)
What is the vertebra of the neck?
The vertebrae in the neck are called cervicle vertebrae. There are 6 of them altogether. The first two (going downward from the skull) are called the atlas and the axis. The rest are just name by their order. Eg: C1 (Atlas), C2 (Axis), C3, C4.....
What is the right lumber region part of?
Lumbar vertebrae are part of the lower spine ; see related link .
Where is the crura of the diaphragm?
The crura of the diaphragm are muscular extensions that originate from the lumbar vertebrae and form the right and left pillars of the diaphragm. They are located posterior to the central tendon and extend downwards, anchoring the diaphragm to the vertebral column. The right crus arises from the bodies of the first three lumbar vertebrae, while the left crus arises from the bodies of the first two lumbar vertebrae. Together, they help support the diaphragm's function in respiration.
How can humans stand on two feet?
up right invertabray it makes sure we keep our balance Skeleton, including vertebrae.
What is a sacral vertebra?
A sacral vertebra is one of the bones in the spine located in the lower back, just below the lumbar vertebrae. There are typically five sacral vertebrae that are fused together to form the sacrum, which connects the spine to the hip bones. The sacral vertebrae play a role in supporting the weight of the body and protecting the spinal cord.
What passes through The transverse foramina and cervical vertebrae?
The vertebral artery passes through the transverse foramina of the cervical vertebrae. These arteries supply blood to the brain and spinal cord.
What is the difference between the cervical vertebrae and thoracic vertebrae and lumbar vertebrae?
The Cervical vertebrae obtain: - Bifid (meaning double) spinous processes - Foramina transversarium for passage of nerves and vessels - The body is a more oval shape - Do not articuate with the ribs The Thoracic vertebrae obtain: - Spinous process (singular) - No foramina transversarium - The body is a small semi-circular shape - Articulate with the ribs -Have demifacets for articulation with the ribs The Lumbar vertebrae obtain: - Spinous process (singular) - No transverse processes - The body is a large circular shape - Does not articulate with the ribs - Demonstrates a "Scotty Dog" when positioned for a left/right anterior/posterior oblique radiograph.
