Expert Solution
Step 1

We’ll answer the first question since the exact one wasn’t specified. Please submit a new question specifying the
one you’d like answered.


In human body, 33 vertebrae can be found. Each vertebra is comprised of body, vertebral arch, as well as
transverse process. The vertebral body helps in bearing load. The vertebral arch plays an important role in
providing protection to the spinal cord. The third component called transverse process functions in ligament
attachment. The interconnection between vertebrae is provided by facet joints.
