Differentiating the Types of Vertebrae Drag each label into the proper position to identify the vertebra it describes. Lumbar Thoracic Body appears bean-shaped Costal facets Large vertebral body Cervical Spinous process projects inferiorly Include a bifid (split) spinous process One of these has no vertebral body Transverse foramina
