Image Description: Labelled illustration of the spine in lateral view. The spine stretches from the base of the skull to the coccyx. It is responsible for supporting upper body weight and protecting the spinal cord. The adult spine consists of 26 bones – 24 vertebrae and the sacrum and coccyx. The vertebrae are divided into three regions – cervical, thoracic or lumbar – and their name contains the first letter of their region.
