Q

This cervical vertebrae has no body and no spinous process, and is described as being a ring of a bone

A

What is C1 a.k.a. the atlas

19
Q

This cervical vertebrae is known to have a body, a bifid spinous process and the Dens process

A

What is C2 a.k.a. the Axis

20
Q

This tooth or Peg-like Process located in the second cervical vertebrae projects, upwards, and articulates with (the C1 a.k.a. the atlas)

A

What is the dens process a.k.a. the odontoid process?

21
Q

This process located on the second cervical vertebrae allows the head to pivot and permits, the side to side movement of the head when you move your head to say no

A

What is the dens process a.k.a. the odontoid process?

22
Q

These processes of the cervical vertebrae, each have a bifid spinous process, but no special name

A

What is C3 - C6

23
Q

This cervical region is the most prominent of the cervical vertebrae, because it possesses a large, non-bifid spinous process

A

What is C7 a.k.a. the cervical prominens?

24
Q

This portion of the vertebrae is larger in size than the cervical vertebrae and the spinous process projects inferiorly, with all ribs, articulating posteriorly with this part of the vertebrae

A

What is the thoracic region T1 - T12

25
Q

This region of the vertebrae is known to be the largest and the strongest, and it’s equipped for full weight bearing, and the various projections are known to be “short and thick”

A

What is the lumbar region L1 through L5?

26
Q

This vertebrae is located in the posterior portion of the pelvic cavity, medial to the two hip bones, and serves as a strong foundation for the pelvic girdle where lower extremities attach to the trunk of the body

A

What is the sacral region (S1) (S1 - S5 in infants)

27
Q

This triangular bone formed by the union a five vertebrae is located on the lower portion of vertebrae and serves as a strong foundation for the pelvic girdle…

A

What is the sacral region S1 (in infants S1 through S5)

28
Q

Formed by the fusion of four vertebrae, This region is known to as the tailbone, and is the most inferior portion of the vertebral column.

A

What is the
Coccygeal region C 01 (and infants C 01 to C 04)

29
Q

These pieces of fibrous cartilage are located between the bodies of each vertebrae from C2 to the sacrum, and act a shock absorbers

A

What are Intervertebral Discs?

30
Q

Informally known as the breast bone this singular bone is described as a flat sword or dagger-shaped bone, located in the anterior midline of the chest

A

What is the sternum?

31
Q

This bone informally known as the breast bone articulates with the first right and left ribs and the clavicle , (a.k.a. collarbone)

A

What is this sternum

32
Q

Name the three parts of the sternum

A

The manubrium, the body, a.k.a. gladIolus and this xiphoid Process, a.k.a. the ensiform process

33
Q

This superior triangle portion of the sternum is where the clavicle in the first rib articulates

A

What is the manubrium

34
Q

This part at the sternum is the middle and largest part of the sternum

A

What is the body a.k.a. gladiolus

35
Q

This part of the sternum forms, the most inferior part of the sternum, and it’s a smaller portion of the sternum

A

What is the xiphoid process a.k.a. Ensiform process

36
Q

This notch is located in the sternum, and is a depression in the medial superior portion of the manubrium

A

What is the jugular notch a.k.a. suprasternal notch?

37
Q

Is notch is located on each side of the jugular notch and articulates with the medial end of the clavicle, forming the sternoclavicular articulation

A

What are the clavicular notches?

38
Q

This part of the sternum is where the manubrium meets the body and where the second rib articulates

A

What is the sternal angle or the angle of Louis?

39
Q

How many ribs are there in the human body?

A

There are 24 ribs (not 12 pair) 24 ribs…

40
Q

These bones protect the vital organs of the thorax

A

What are ribs?

41
Q

These ribs are the first seven pairs, and attached directly to the sternum by there on coastal cartilage

A

What are true ribs?

42
Q

These ribs costal cartilage does not attach directly to the sternum and instead attached to each other, and then attach to the cartilage of the seventh rib (indirectly to the sternum)

A

What are false ribs? (Ribs 8 -10)

43
Q

These special kind of false ribs do not attached to the sternum at all, and the only point of attachment is the thoracic vertebrae

A
