DETAIL:

|
DESCRIPTION:
A lumbar vertebra. Contrast this with the appearance of a
cervical vertebra
(see
the
first two cervical (neck) vertebrae,
posterior
view of the axis (C2),
and
a
typical cervical vertebra).
The five lumbar vertebrae are relatively massive, since they
bear the weight of the upper body when one is in the upright
position. The lumbar vertebrae are interlocked in such a way
that flexion and extension of the spine are possible, but little
rotation can be accomplished.
