The upper and lower surfaces of the vertebra body give attachment to the intervertebral discs. The posterior part of a vertebra forms a vertebral arch, in eleven parts, consisting of two pedicles, two laminae, and seven processes. The laminae give attachment to the ligamenta flava.pecific to the cervical vertebra is the transverse foramen, (also known as foramen transversarium). This is an opening on each of the transverse processes which gives passage to the vertebral artery and vein and a sympathetic nerve plexus.
Every single rib is attached to its respective vertebrae, which are the bones that connect together to form the vertebral column, more commonly called the spinal column. There are a total of 33 vertebrae in a human spine, or backbone, which is divided into cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral, and coccygeal sections.he first seven ribs on either side of the body connect to the sternum via their respective costal cartilage.

Their costal cartilage connects to the preceding rib's costal cartilage, while the last two ribs do not attach to the sternum at all.
