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.
What body part lies inferior to the lumbar vertebrae?
The sacrum and coccyx lie inferior to the lumbar vertebrae in the vertebral column.
What are the five parts of vertebral column in order from superior to inferior?
The vertebral column consists of five main parts, listed from superior to inferior as follows: the cervical vertebrae (7 vertebrae in the neck), the thoracic vertebrae (12 vertebrae in the upper back), the lumbar vertebrae (5 vertebrae in the lower back), the sacrum (5 fused vertebrae forming the posterior part of the pelvis), and the coccyx (4 fused vertebrae forming the tailbone). Each region has distinct characteristics and functions that contribute to the overall structure and flexibility of the spine.

What bones make up the spinal cord?
Spinal cord is also called vertebral column in vertebrates (humans and mammals.) It is made up of 33 vertebrae. Starting from top most 7 vertebrae makes cervical column,then 12 vertebrae makes thoracic column, then 5 vertebrae makes lumbar column. In the last part of pelvis, the sacral column has 9 fused vertebrae and a tailed portion of the tapering spinal cord is called coccygeal vertebra

What bones protects spinal cord?
The spinal cord is protected by the vertebral column or spinal column. The vertebral column is a collection of individual bones called vertebrae that encase and protect the spinal cord. The vertebral column is divided into three parts: seven cervical (neck) vertebrae at the top, twelve thoracic vertebrae in the midback, and five lumbar vertebrae in the lower back. Below the lumbar vertebrae, but not protecting the spinal cord, are the sacrum and coccyx (tailbone).
