PPT-CERVICAL VERTEBRAE

CERVICAL VERTEBRAE Landmarks C1 base of the nose and the hard palate C2 the teeth of a closed mouth C3 the mandible and hyoid bone C4 the common carotid artery bifurcates . The vertebrae surround the spinal cord and protect it from damage Nerves branch off the spinal cord and travel to the rest of the body allowing for communication between the brain and the body The brain can send a message down the spinal cord and ou Hitherto little attention has been given to the role of forced lateral fiexion. In this paper evidence is presented that some injuries of the cervical spine and spinal cord are caused mainly by forced Forms longitudinal axis of the body. 80 bones . 40% of the bones in the human body. Axial Skeleton. Three Regions:. Skull (8 cranial & 14 facial). ** bones associated with skull (6 auditory . ossicles. Vertebral Column (Spine). Extends from the skull, which it supports, to the pelvis, where it transmits the weight of the body to the lower limbs. The spine is formed from 26 irregular bones connected and reinforced by ligaments in such a way that a flexible curved structure results. What is an x-ray?. Have you had an x-ray before?.
