Type of vertebra containing foramina in the transverse processes through which the vertebral arteries ascend to reach the brain?
Cervical vertebra - typical The cervical vertebrae contain foramina in the transverse processes, called foramina transversarium.
What vertebral type containing foraminia in the transverse processes through which the vertabral arteries ascend to reach the brain?
Cervical Vertebra - Typical
Cervical vertebrae can be distinguished from other types by the?
- Transverse foramen (holes in the transverse processes through which travels the vertebral artery) - Uncinate processes (lip on the supero-lateral aspects of vertebral bodies)
Where do the scalenes originate?
They originate from the transverse processes from the cervical vertebrae of C2 to C7 and insert onto the first and second ribs. Thus they are called the lateral vertebral muscles.
The transverse processes of the first cervical vertebra are also known as the?
The transverse processes of the first cervical vertebra (C1) are also known as the lateral masses. They are prominent bony structures that extend laterally from the sides of the vertebra and serve as points of attachment for muscles and ligaments.
Ina cervical vertebrae what is transverse foramina?
Transverse foramina are small openings within the transverse processes of the cervical vertebrae. These foramina allow the passage of the vertebral artery and vertebral veins, which supply blood to the spinal cord and brain.
What are distinguishing features of a cervical vertebra?
Transverse foramina (on all cervical vertebrae) and bifid spinous process on C2-C6
Typical type of vertebrae containing formula in the transverse process?
The typical type of vertebrae containing foramina in the transverse process are cervical vertebrae. These foramina are called transverse foramina, and they allow for the passage of the vertebral artery and vein in the cervical spine.
What are the names of the openings on cervical vertebrae?
transverse foramen
Which landmark is specific only to a cervical vertebrae?
The transverse foramen
Does the thoracic and lumbar vertebra have a transverse foramina?
A transverse foramen is located on the transverse process of cervicle vertebra. The vertebral foramen is the large (more anterior) opening in the body of a vertebra through which the "spinal chord" passes. when the vertebra are stacked in the vertebral column, the series of vertebral foramen is called the vertebral canal.
