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.
What is the main difference between the vertebral foramen and the intervertebral foramen in the spinal column?
The main difference between the vertebral foramen and the intervertebral foramen in the spinal column is that the vertebral foramen is a single opening within each vertebra that allows the spinal cord to pass through, while the intervertebral foramen are openings located between adjacent vertebrae that allow spinal nerves to exit the spinal cord and travel to the rest of the body.
What is the difference between the vertebral canal and foramen in the spinal column?
The vertebral canal is the hollow space within the spinal column that houses the spinal cord, while the foramen are openings in the vertebrae through which nerves pass.
The obturator formen is part of what bone?

The adult vertebral column contains?

What is the difference in articulation between the skull and the vertebral column of a rat and a human?
The articulations of the human skull and vertebral column consist of a series of amphiarthrodial joints between the vertebral bodies, and a series of diathrodial joints between the vertebral arches. The articulations of the rat skull and vertebral column consist of cervical vertebrae which have small, transverse processes containing a hole through which nerves and blood vessels pass.
Structures that form an enclosure for the spinal cord?
The boney structures are the Vertebral Foramina. The spine is "divided" into the Cervical Spine (neck), the Thoracic Spine (chest & Ribs), Lumbar spine (lower back) anc Coccyx, or "tailbone".
What characteristics help you distinguish between the different types of vertebrae?
Cervical Vertebrae- has transverse foramen, and a bifid tip of spinous process Thoracic Vertebrae- Has coastal facets on the sides of the body Lumar Vertebrae- has no transverse foramen, no bifurcated tip, and no facets on the sides of the body
What is the vertebral column to the skull?
The vertebral column is inferior to the skull.
Is the vertebral column is posterior to the sternum?

Is the vertebral column posterior to the sternum?
