The spine is made up of vertebrae.
A human body typically has 5 lumbar vertebrae, which are located in the lower back region, between the thoracic vertebrae and the sacrum. These vertebrae are larger and sturdier to support the weight of the upper body and provide flexibility for movement.
The human body has 33 vertebrae, including 24 presacral vertebrae (7 cervical, 12 thoracic, and 5 lumbar) and 9 fused vertebrae in the sacrum and coccyx.
The lumbar vertebrae are located in the lower back region of the human spine, between the thoracic vertebrae and the sacrum. There are five lumbar vertebrae (L1 to L5) that support the weight of the upper body and allow for bending and twisting movements of the trunk.
a human being has 33 vertebrae all together including neck to spine and everything. and then for a humans neck is the same as a giraffe which is 7 vertebrae in their neck since they are both mammals the vertebrae are just different sizes.

Vertebrae Human Body (or possibly Backbone)
There are seven cervical vertebrae in the human body, forming the upper part of the vertebral column in the neck region.
The human spine is made up of three parts, the cervical spine(neck), the thoracic(middle), and the lumbar (lower back). The lumbar consists of 5 vertebrae in the average adult human, but may also only have 4 or 6 vertebrae depending on the individual, although this is not as common.
The smallest vertebrae in the human body are the cervical vertebrae, specifically the atlas (C1) and the axis (C2). The atlas supports the skull and allows for nodding movement, while the axis enables rotation of the head. These vertebrae are essential for the flexibility and mobility of the neck. Their small size is critical for their function in supporting the head while allowing a wide range of motion.
7 vertebrae in the cervical section of the vertebral column
Atlas also known as C1. It is smallest because it is on top
