Figure 5-5 shows superior views of four types of
vertebrae.
For questions 18-19 and 31-32 indicate in which
region of the spinal column it would be found. For
question 20 specifically identify the first figure. V
questions 11-17 and 21-30 use the letters to identify
the (A) vertebral body, (B) spinous processes, (C)
transverse processes, (D) superior articular
processes, and (E) vertebral foramen.

Figure 5-6 is a lateral view of the vertebral column.
Identify each numbered region of the column by
listing in the numbered answer blanks the region
name first and then the specific vertebrae involved
(for example, sacral region, S# to S#). Also identify
the modified vertebrae indicated by numbers 6 and
7 in Figure 5-6. Select different colors for each
vertebral region and use them to color the coding
circles and the corresponding regions
