The vertebrae are held together primarily by ligaments, which connect adjacent vertebrae, and intervertebral discs, which provide cushioning and support between them. The anterior and posterior longitudinal ligaments run along the spine, reinforcing stability. Additionally, the facet joints between the vertebrae allow for movement while maintaining structural integrity. Together, these components create a flexible yet stable spinal column.
The 33 vertebrae in the human spine are divided as follows: 7 cervical vertebrae, 12 thoracic vertebrae, 5 lumbar vertebrae, 5 sacral vertebrae (fused into the sacrum), and 4 coccygeal vertebrae (fused into the coccyx).
The vetebrae of the lower back are called lumbar vertebrae. Lower than that, the vertebrae are fused together in the sacrum, and the lowest part of the spine is the tailbone or coccyx.
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.
The strong force holds atomic nuclei together.
You tend to think about the sacrum. But it is not the case. You have the tail bone or the coccyx. It is the most inferior bone in the vertebral column.
the sacral vertebrae, and think it's 4 to 5 that are fused together
There are 33 Vertebrae, starting from the top (just under skull) there are: 7 cervical vertebrae 12 thoracic vertebrae 5 lumbar vertebrae 5 sacral vertebrae (fused together) 4 coccygeal vertebrae (fused together)
remove the disc and put the two vertebrae back together. what happens to the nerve?
The 33 vertebrae in the human spine are divided as follows: 7 cervical vertebrae, 12 thoracic vertebrae, 5 lumbar vertebrae, 5 sacral vertebrae (fused into the sacrum), and 4 coccygeal vertebrae (fused into the coccyx).
The four vertebrae that are fused together are the sacral vertebrae, specifically S1 to S5, which form the sacrum. This fusion provides stability and support to the pelvis and the spine, playing a crucial role in weight-bearing and movement. In some individuals, the coccygeal vertebrae can also be fused, forming the coccyx or tailbone.
Its primary purpose is to act as a shock absorber between adjacent vertebrae. Spinal discs also act as ligaments that hold the vertebrae of the spine together

well all say the gravity holds everything together but i don't know what holds everything together
