Animals with an internal skeleton made of bone are called vertebrates. Vertebrates include fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals, primates, rodents and marsupials.
Although vertebrates represent only a very small percentage of all animals, their size and mobility often allow them to dominate their environment.
Examples are cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and sacral vertebra.
The seventh cervical vertebra is called as vertebra prominens. This vertebra has the long and prominent spine. This spine can be felt at the joint of the neck and thorax.
Transitional lumbosacral vertebra is a condition where the last lumbar vertebra (L5) is partially fused with the first sacral vertebra (S1). This can lead to variations in the anatomy and function of the lower back and pelvis, potentially causing pain or discomfort. It is a common anatomical variant that may be seen in some individuals.
The c5 vertebra is located in the lower part of the neck, just below the c4 vertebra. The c4 vertebra is slightly higher up in the neck compared to the c5 vertebra.
Body of the vertebra. It is fused with the Axis vertebra. Axis being the second vertebra.
The abbreviation for a damaged vertebra is typically "Fx," which stands for "fracture." In medical contexts, you might see it used with a numeral to specify the affected vertebra, such as "L1 Fx" for a fracture of the first lumbar vertebra.
Some words that rhyme with "vertebra" are zebra, hubra, and tibra.
A vertebrate is an animal with a vertebra. A vertebra is a spine. Examples of vertebrates would be apes, birds, snakes and fish. An invertebrate does not have a spine. Examples - a slug, an octopus, an ant.
Posterior thoracic.
Cervical vertebra
A kangaroo is a vertebra.
The seventh cervical vertebra is called as vertebra prominens. This vertebra has the long and prominent spine. This spine can be felt at the joint of the neck and thorax.
Transitional lumbosacral vertebra is a condition where the last lumbar vertebra (L5) is partially fused with the first sacral vertebra (S1). This can lead to variations in the anatomy and function of the lower back and pelvis, potentially causing pain or discomfort. It is a common anatomical variant that may be seen in some individuals.
The c5 vertebra is located in the lower part of the neck, just below the c4 vertebra. The c4 vertebra is slightly higher up in the neck compared to the c5 vertebra.
Body (of the vertebra)
There are 5 lumbar vertebra
The part of a vertebra that articulates immediately with the vertebra below it is called the inferior articular facet. This facet, located on the lower part of the vertebra's articular processes, connects with the superior articular facet of the vertebra beneath it, allowing for movement and stability in the spinal column.
Body of the vertebra. It is fused with the Axis vertebra. Axis being the second vertebra.
