| Details | This model is upgraded from VIC-126, and features different sections of the
spinal column in different color: cerXCal vertebrae, thoracic vertebrae, lumbar
vertebrae, sacrum and the coccyx. This model was designed as a visual aid for teaching physiology and hygiene courses for the purpose of helping students have a better understanding of the relationship between human vertebral column and pelvis. Besides, it can also be employed to learn physiology and the structure of joints.
This model is upgraded from 105 Life-Size Vertebral Column with Pelvis, and features different sections of the spinal column in different color: cervical vertebrae, thoracic vertebrae, lumbar vertebrae, sacrum and the coccyx.
Pelvic skeleton, female, with movable femur heads Realistic pelvic skeleton model Consists of hip bone, sacrum with coccyx and 2 lumbar vertebrae as well as movable symphysis The anatomical detail of this high quality model is a great educational tool for a classroom or doctor's office Measures.

| Knowledge | Vertebral The vertebrae in the human vertebral column are divided into different regions, which correspond to the curves of the spinal column. The articulating vertebrae are named according to their region of the spine. Vertebrae in these regions are essentially alike, with minor variation. These regions are called the cervical spine, thoracic spine, lumbar spine, sacrum, and coccyx. There are seven cervical vertebrae, twelve thoracic vertebrae, and five lumbar vertebrae. The number of vertebrae in a region can vary but overall the number remains the same. The number of those in the cervical region, however, is only rarely changed. The vertebrae of the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spines are independent bones and generally quite similar. The vertebrae of the sacrum and coccyx are usually fused and unable to move independently. Two special vertebrae are the atlas and axis, on which the head rests. |
