The spinal cord exits the skull via the foramen magnum.
Membranes called meninges cover and protect the brain and spinal cord. The skull and spinal column also protect the brain and spinal cord, respectively. The spinal cord is made up by individual vertebrae.
Nerve roots exit the spinal cord between the vertabrae.

The mandibular nerve passes through foaramen ovale of the spenoid bone. Blood passes through the foamen ovale of the heart of the fetus.
Chordomas develop on the skull or spinal cord.

No, the brain is located in the cranial cavity of the skull, while the spinal cord is located in the spinal cavity within the vertebral column. The brain and spinal cord are part of the central nervous system and are connected by the brainstem.
Skull suture abnormalities, such as craniosynostosis, can influence the spinal cord indirectly by affecting cranial shape and pressure on the brain. Abnormal skull shapes can lead to increased intracranial pressure, which may impact the development and function of the spinal cord. Additionally, the alignment of the skull can influence the cervical spine's position, potentially leading to issues with spinal cord function. In severe cases, these abnormalities can result in neurological symptoms due to compromised spinal cord pathways.
