How to identify a vertebra (anatomy)

How can you tell which vertebra is which? How can you tell which region of the vertebral column a vertebra belongs to?

Everytime I think of anatomy I come to his page…his brain is so full with knowledge it’s amazing to listen and learn from him.

Dr. Webster, I am a first year medical student in a very good institution and they have thrown a bunch of text at us to learn anatomy. I think I was having an anxiety attack before I found your channel. I have to demo my part of the dissection tomorrow and our first anatomy exam is friday. Hopefully it'll be ok with your help. Keep doing what you are doing and hopefully you recover from your illness (not the one you had when you made this video but the one you currently have).

My favourite KZbin channel to learn anatomy! Thank you so much Sam :)

[@nhup3378]

The explanation about the vertebral column is amazing. I have a hard time memorizing all of the bony structures for the vertebrae and my test is coming up. Thank you for your video. You have a new subscriber

[@Micdupwithjay]

This was the most easily digestible learning of anatomy I’ve seen so far

[@ravens.9968]

These videos have helped me so much. Thank you for taking the time to post these! They are the best for learning anatomy. 🙌🏼

[@audreyl.8366]

We completely glossed over these in class. We got the "breakfast, lunch, dinner" explanation on how to count and "learn to tell them apart by the exam." Thank you for expanding.

[@abdullahihamzah7615]

I swear sam webster is a motivational teacher. When watch his videos, anatomy becomes your pet.... thanks to your hardwork

Went from studying for my anatomy class to falling down a rabbit-hole of giraffe vertebrae :') but for real, this is a life saver, so much clearer than my textbook!

Thank you. I have 2 friends with opposing backgrounds with similar spinal issues. One has a medical background & gives great detail that I cannot not keep up with. The other has no medical background and has more questions than knowledge. With this education, I can talk to both!

[@ginoasci2876]

i fell out of a tree and onto my tailbone when i was around ten years old and i have felt pain intermittently on the very last bone until i was in my forties. i was approximately forty five years old using a shovel and a very sharp pain struck that last bone, and lasted several days. that was the last of it. funny how some injuries stay with you.

[@carrotremi1641]

Hi Sam, thanks for all your videos! They're great for shaking off holiday rust. If I may ask, what is the function of the long, angled thoracic spinous processes? Is it to prevent excessive bending, so as to avoid compressing the lungs?

[@SamWebster]

The spinous processes' main roles are in muscle attachments, so I would guess that their varying lengths relate more to maintenance of posture and aiding movement rather than limiting it (compare to cervical spinous processes and consider the muscles that hold the head up, and the curvature of the cervical spine). The attachments of the ribs (or their costal cartilages) to the sternum limits compression of the lungs by the thoracic cage.
