54
Q
A

vertebral prominens

55
Q

what is a bifid spinous process and why is it significant

A

a bifid spinal process is a spinal process that has two prongs

C2-6 normally have bifid proceses, other vertebrae do not

56
Q

uncus of the body

A

hook like projections from the superior surface of the body that are received by shallow grooves on the inferior surface of the superior body

57
Q

what is the groove of a spinal nerve

A

a lateral groove on the superior surface of a normal transverse process

58
Q

what are the two areas indicated by A? What do they form?

A

the anterior and posterior tubercle of the cervical transverse process

the groove that holds tha spinal nerve

59
Q

what is the sacral canal

A

the continuation of the spinal canal into the sacrum

60
Q

what is A indicating

A

the tubercle for attachment of the transverse ligament of the atlas

61
Q

what is the carotid tubercle

A

the anterior tubercle of the C6 vertbrae

62
Q
A

A) mammillary process

B) Accessory process

63
Q

where are the accessory processes of the spine found and what do they do

A

the posterior surface of the lumbar transverse processes

provide attachment for the intertransversarii muscles

64
Q

where are the mammillary processes of the spine and what is their function

A

on the posterior surface of the lumbar superior articular processes

provide attachment for the multifidus and intertransversarii

65
Q

what is the base of the sacrum

A

the superior surface of the sacrum

66
Q

what is the base of the sacrum

A

the tapered inferior end of the sacrum

67
Q

what is the pelvic surface of the sacrum

A

the flat anterior portion

68
Q

what are the transverse lines of the sacrum and where are they found

A

they are four lines indicating the four fused vertebrae of the sacrum

the pelvic surface of the pelvis

69
Q
A

A) lateral crest

B) medial crest

C) intermediate crest

70
Q

where are the zygapophyseal joint capsules found

A

between the articular facets of adjacent superior and inferior vertbrae

71
Q

what are the ligamentum flavum and where are they found

A

ligaments of the spine that connect the lamina of adjacent vertrbae from C2 to S1

72
Q

where are the interspinous ligaments found

A

vertically connecting the spinous processes of adjacte vertebrae

73
Q

supraspinous ligament

A

connects the tips of the spinous processes of adjacent vertbrae

74
Q

anterior longitudinal ligament

A

runs along the anterolateral side of the vertebral column connecting the bodies of adjacent vertebrae

75
Q

posterior longitudinal ligament

A

runs along the posterior surface of the vertebral bodies and attaches to the IV discs

76
Q

what is this? where is it found?

A

the posterior atlanto occipital membrane

between the posterior arch of the atlas and the foramen magnum

77
Q

what is this? where is it found

A

B) Alar ligament

C) transverse ligament

80
Q

what is the tectorial membrane

A

a continuation of a the posterior longitudinal ligament that passes posteriorly over the medain atlanto-axial joint into the skull

81
Q
