The Lumbar Vertebrae are bigger and stronger than vertebral bodies in certain positions.

The vertebral bodies and disks bares majority of the body weight of the body. The lamina, facets and spinous process are basic components of the posterior materials that assist in guiding the movement of the vertebrae and as a coverage or protective shelter for the spinal cord.

The anterior and posterior lobes of the pituitary differ in that _____.
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

many anterior pituitary hormones regulate other endocrine glands whereas posterior pituitary hormones regulate nonendocrine tissues

Explanation:

Anterior pituitary or adenohypophysis is the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland. Secretion of endocrine cells of the anterior pituitary is controlled by regulatory hormones released by hypothalamus. The hypothalamic releasing hormones bind to anterior pituitary endocrine cells, upregulating or downregulating their release of hormones. Anterior pituitary hormones stimulate endocrine glands: FSH and LH (ovaries and testes), TSH (thyroid), and ACTH (adrenal cortex).

Posterior pituitary or neurohypophysis is the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland. It  is not glandular it is just a collection of axonal projections from the hypothalamus. Posterior pituitary hormones regulate nonendocrine tissues: ADH-vasopressin (kidney tubules) and oxytocin (mammary glands, uterine tissues, brain).
