What is back view of a skeleton?

The back view of a skeleton shows the posterior aspect of the human skeletal system. It includes the spinal column, which is made up of 33 individual vertebrae bones, divided into 5 regions: cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral, and coccygeal. The spinal column is responsible for providing structural support to the body, protecting the spinal cord, and allowing for movement of the head, neck, and trunk. Additionally, the back view of a skeleton displays the shoulder blades (scapulae), rib cage, and pelvis, which are all key components of the axial skeleton. The back view is important for understanding the arrangement and function of the bones and joints as they relate to posture, movement, and physical activity.
