Imagine yourself with a vertebral column with long single bone or with fixed joint a)how will such a change affect your life
Explanation:
the vertebral column is a long set of small bones connected end to end with flexible cartilaginous joints. It is a hollow protective casing for the spinal cord which is an extremely important part of the human nervous system.
Having a singular backbone or a column joined with fixed immovable joints will create a number of problems for us.
- Movement of our neck would be hindered.
- Bending forward or any other way would be rendered almost impossible
- Our reflexes would get slower due to a stiff back.
- Risk of back fractures due to sudden movements would see a drastic increase.
-The back would not be able to support the weight of heavy set people.
- Sitting/ lying down and standing up would be quite awkward.
