vertebrae
The Dura, Arachnoid, and the Pia Mater (the meninges)
The backbone houses the spinal cord, and the spinal cord connects to the brain stem which includes the medulla. So no, the medulla does not house the backbone. If the backbone can be said to be housed in anything, it is housed in the back.
no organ protects the spinal cord, and the spinal cord supports the head and back.
The medulla
The human body is made up of various tendons, muscles, and bones that all serve a different function. The head and back are supported by the spinal column which is covered by vertebrae that run from your tail to your neck.
The Vertebral Column (aka, the spine or backbone) protects the spinal cord and supports the head and back.
The spinal cord begins at the base of the brain and extends down the back, running through the spinal canal in the vertebral column.
The spinal cord starts at the base of the brain and extends down the back, running through the spinal canal in the vertebral column.
The spinal cord.
The spinal cord is the part of the nervous system that extends down the back. It is a long, thin, tubular bundle of nervous tissue and serves as the main pathway for transmitting messages between the brain and the rest of the body.
None. Your back bone, or vertebrae, protects your spinal column, which is a membrane with nerves running down it that help control your muscle movements and organ function in your body.
