to better visualize the movements of the spine. The planes involved are the saggital plane and transverse plane.

The flexion and extension of the spine involves movement in the saggital plane‚ while the rotation and bending of the spine (left and right) involves movement in the transverse plane. An outcome that will support the hypothesis is if the zygapophyses in the thoracic

The skeleton is designed in such a way that the delicate parts of the body are protected. These parts are major organs‚ the brain is protected by the skull‚ the lungs and heart are protected by the ribs and the vertical column protects the spinal cord.
