Find out about the vertebral or spinal column/backbone - what are the bones of the vertebra, anatomy, structure, and functions, along with labeled diagrams.
Explore the anatomy and structure of the 26 bones that make up the spine with Innerbody's 3D model.
All of these bones and sections are important to the spine’s ability to function properly. Each vertebra has specific anatomical features and functions. The spine can be divided into five regions: Cervical spine (the neck): The first seven vertebrae at the top of the spine.
The spine is divided into four regions which contain vertebrae: the cervical, the thoracic, the lumbar, and the sacral. Hover over each part to see what they do. Vertebrae Connections & Functions.
Your spine is the long column of bones that extend from your neck to your lower back. Your spine starts at the base of your skull (head bone) and ends at your tailbone, a part of your pelvis (the large bony structure between your abdomen and legs).
The vertebral column (spine or backbone) is a curved structure composed of bony vertebrae that are interconnected by cartilaginous intervertebral discs. It is part of the axial skeleton and extends from the base of the skull to the tip of the coccyx. The spinal cord runs through its center.
The spine’s four sections, from top to bottom, are the cervical (neck), thoracic (abdomen,) lumbar (lower back), and sacral (toward tailbone). Throughout the spine, intervertebral discs made of...
