pedicle and lamina
vertebral body is made of?
the body of the vertebra
Pedicle purpose
to connect the vertebra body to the lamina
Intervertebral Foramen -

Formed?
-where the spinal nerves exit the vertebral column

when superior vertebral notch and inferior vertebral notch from two different vertebra come together
Where is the spinal cord found?
In the vertebral foramen
Pedical + lamina =
transverse process
lamina + lamina =
spinous process
Costa region of transverse process becomes what in the 4 different sections of vertebra
1. cervical - fuses to create transverse process
2. thoracic- makes ribs
3. lumbar- fuses
4. sacral- fuses
When transvere and costal don't fuse what happens?
You would have an extra rib
What makes up the intervertebral disc?
anulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus
Purpose of intervertebral disc
gives us the curve of the back, shock absorbers, and movement of vertebral column
What leaks in herniated discs?
nucleus pulposus
Where is the intervertebral disc?
In between 2 vertebral discs
Intervertebral Disc Layers
Inner -
Outer -
Inner= Nucleus Pulposus
Outer= Anulus Fibrosus
If a herniated disc occurs where would it occur?
Where the posterior longitudinal ligament and anterior longitudinal ligament gap
What is the ruminate of notocord?
the nucleus pulposus
What surrounds the vertebra and intervertebral discs?
the anterior longitudinal ligament and posterior longitudinal ligament
What does the supraspinous ligament run along?
the spinous processes
Interspinous ligament is found where?
In between the spinous processes
What replaces the supraspinous ligament in cervical region?
ligamentum nuchae
Where does ligamentum nuchae start and in
from external occipital protuberance to C7
Function of ligamentum nuchae
to support the weight of the head and replaces the supraspinaous ligament
Ligamentum flavum- found where?

Purpose?
connects two adjacent laminas

to assist in elastic recoil to come back to standing position
Name the 6 vertebral ligaments
1. anterior longitudinal ligament
2. posterior longitudinal ligament
3. interspinous ligament
4. supraspinous ligament
5. ligamentum nuchae
6. ligamentum flavum
Name the 3 types of joints
fibrous, cartilaginous, synovial
Examples of fibrous joints in vertebral column
syndesmosis --interspinous ligament and ligamentum flavum
Joints found in the spine
the syndesmosis, symphysis (found in midline) and synovial
synovial joint
greatest amount of movement

external fibrous capusle within a synovial joint filled with synovial fluid
Name types of fibrous joints
suture in the skull, gomphosis in the teeth and jaw, and syndesmosis in the vertebral column
Name the types of cartilaginous
synchodrosis (growth plate) and symphysis (midline of body)
Where do synovial joints occur in back?
between the superior articular process and inferior articular process
Name the regions of the vertebral column
cervical thoracic lumbar sacral and coccygeal
Name the number of vertebra within each section of the vertebral column
cervical 7
thoracic 12
lumbar 5
sacral 5
coccygeal 4
Name layers of a synovial joint from outer to inner
fibrous capsule, synovial capsule, articular cartilage, joint space
How many total vertebra
33 total
how many total spinal nerve pairs?
31
Cerivcal Vertebrae - goes from__

Characteristics
C1-C7

smallest, bifid spinous process (2 point things on spinal process), foramen transversarium (holes on the side)
How is Atlas specialized?
no spinous process, no vertebral body
Another name for C1
Atlas
What do all cervical vertebra have in common?
small and transverse foramen

atlas-doesnt have bifid spinous process
Another name for C2
Axis
Where does the dens on C2 come from/
It comes the vetebral body that C1 was suppose to have
Name of the joint that connects the occipital condyles and atlas?
atlanto-occipital joint
joint that connects the axis and atlas
atlanto-axial
Characteristic of thoracic vertebrae
costal facets (for the ribs), long inferiorly directed spinous process, larger vertebral body
Characteristics of lumbar
larger, very rectangular spineous process, no costal facets
Characteristics of sacral
present at birth but fuse in 20s, articulates with pelvic girdle, no spinal nerves exiting, give stability,
Characteristics of coccygeal
coccygeal horn, fuse, tail bone, vestigial
Name the primary curves of vertebral column

What is the shape of the 1 curve?
thoracic and sacral which develop before birth

Anteriorly C shape
Name the secondary curves of vertebral column
Cervical and Lumbar
Scoliosis-
curve to the back, idiopathic (cause is unknown), causes a rib hump, uneven shoulders and hips, will keep head in midline by creating a secondary to offset the primary curve
Kyphosis-
abnormal anterior bending -cervical and thoracic outward curve of spine -- older people
Lordosis-
abnormal posterior bending - inward curve of spine -either lumbar or sacral - pregnant women
