What is the EORI number for? An EORI number is stored both nationally and on a central EU EORI database. The information it provides is used by customs authorities to exchange information, and to share information with government departments and agencies. It is used for statistical and security purposes. Who needs an EORI number?
The coccyx (/ËkÉksÉªks/ KOK-siks; plural: coccyges or coccyxes), commonly referred to as the tailbone, is the final segment of the vertebral column in humans and apes, and certain other mammals such as horses. In animals with bony tails, it is known as tailhead or dock, in bird anatomy as tailfan. It comprises three to five separate or fused coccygeal vertebrae below the sacrum, attached to the sacrum by a fibrocartilaginous joint, the sacrococcygeal symphysis, which permits limited movement between the sacrum and the coccyx.
Vertebral Column Overview. The Vertebral column (spinal column) supports the head and encloses the spinal cord. The spinal column is comprised of 26 individual bones, these bones are referred to as vertebrae.The spinal column is divided into 5 different areas containing groups of vertebrae and are grouped as follows:7 cervical vertebrae in the neck. 12 thoracic vertebrae in the upper back corresponding to each pair of ribs. 5 lumbar vertebrae in the lower back.5 sacral vertebrae which are fused together to form 1 bone called the sacrum. 4 coccygeal vertebrae that are fused together to form the coccyx or tail-bone. The vertebrae are referred to by their name and number, counting down from the top of the spinal column as follows:he thoracic vertebrae are T1 - T12. The lumbar vertebrae are L1 - L5. The sacrum and coccyx do not have numbers and each is thought of as one bone. Spinal nerves exit the sacrum and coccyx at levels (Foramen) within the main structure of each vertebra.
