A pic of cushions of cartilage between the vertebrae of the spine?
The cushions of cartilage between the vertebrae of the spine are called intervertebral discs. These discs act as shock absorbers and help provide flexibility and cushioning between the vertebrae. They consist of a tough outer layer called the annulus fibrosus and a gel-like inner core called the nucleus pulposus.
What is a disk in your back?
The disks in your back are structures that act as cushions between the vertebrae of the spine. They contain a jelly-like substance called nucleus pulposus, surrounded by a tough outer layer. The disks help absorb shock and allow for movement of the spine.
How are the vertebrae joined together?
The vertebrae are joined together by intervertebral discs, which act as cushions and allow for flexibility and movement of the spine. Ligaments, such as the anterior and posterior longitudinal ligaments, provide stability by connecting the vertebrae along their lengths. Additionally, facet joints between adjacent vertebrae enable articulation and support the spine's structural integrity. This combination of discs, ligaments, and joints allows for both mobility and support in the spinal column.
What are Vertebrae held together by?
Vertebrae are held together by ligaments and muscles that help support and stabilize the spine. Additionally, there are intervertebral discs located between each vertebra that act as cushions and provide flexibility to the spine.
Flat round plate like cartilaginous structure between vertebrae?
Intervertebral discs are flat, round, cartilaginous structures found between adjacent vertebrae in the spine. They act as cushions to absorb shock and allow for flexibility in the spine. Each disc has a tough outer layer called the annulus fibrosus and a gel-like inner core called the nucleus pulposus.

Why back bone protects spinal card?
No one bone protects the spinal cord. The spine consists of 33 bones called vertebrae, of which the spinal cord travels through the center. These vertebrae are held in place, or supported, by ligaments and muscles. Cushions between each vertebrae are called discs. So, essentially, the spinal cord is protected by bone, discs, ligaments and the muscles.
