Comparative anatomy of the atlas / C1

Описание к видео Comparative anatomy of the atlas / C1

The first cervical vertebra is known as the atlas , and is modified to allow movement of the head. The atlas has no conventional body, instead it is composed of two lateral masses joined by dorsal and ventral arches. The wing of the atlas is the transverse process of this vertebra and allows the spinal column to articulate with the skull, by providing a resting place for the occipital condyles.
