Spine pic

The spine, also called the backbone, is made up of vertebral bones with cushioning intervertebral discs between them. The spine is designed to give us stability and smooth movement, as well as providing a corridor of protection for the delicate spinal cord.  It is supported by muscles, tendons and ligaments, and innervated by nerves that branch out from the centrally placed spinal cord.
