Answer: The Osteophyte is emanating from the Posterolateral Area of C2.

Explanation: The <em>Cervical Plexus</em> consists of 8 nerve roots, from <em>C1-C8</em>, and the Cervical Column consists of 7 vertebrae, from C1-C7.

The first nerve root (<em>C1</em>) emerges above the body C1 vertebra.

The second nerve root (<em>C2</em>) emerges below the body C1 and above C2's body vertebra.

The third nerve root (<em>C3</em>) emerges below the body of C2 and above C3's body vertebra.

The fourth nerve root (<em>C4</em>) emerges below the body of C3 and above C4's body.

The fifth nerve root (<em>C5</em>) emerges below the body of C4, and above the body of C5.

The sixth nerve root (<em>C6</em>) emerges below the body of C5 and above the body of C6

The seventh nerve root (<em>C7</em>) emerges below the body of C6 and above the body of C7.

The eighth nerve root (<em>C8</em>) emerges below the body of C7 and above the body of T1.
