Verified step by step guidance

Understand the structure of the vertebral column, which is divided into five regions: cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral, and coccygeal.

Learn the location of the cervical region, which consists of the first seven vertebrae (C1-C7) located in the neck area.

Compare the cervical region to the other regions: the thoracic region is located in the upper back and has 12 vertebrae, the lumbar region is in the lower back with 5 vertebrae, and the sacral region is part of the pelvis with 5 fused vertebrae.

Recognize that the cervical vertebrae are unique in their structure, including features like transverse foramina and a smaller body compared to other vertebrae.

Conclude that the cervical vertebrae belong to the cervical region of the vertebral column, as they are specifically located in the neck area.
