Anatomy Of Cervical Vertebrae: The cervical vertebrae are the seven spinal bones in the neck region. They support the head, protect the spinal cord, and allow for a wide range of neck motion.
3rd Vertebrae: The third cervical vertebra (C3) supports neck mobility and spinal cord protection, lying between C2 and C4. It plays a critical role in head and neck function.
2nd Vertebrae: The second vertebra, or axis (C2), supports the atlas (C1) and enables the head to rotate from side to side, forming a key part of the cervical spine.
