Answer:
E, Head of the fifth rib
Explanation:
Thoracic vertebrae are the twelve vertebral segments (T1-T12) that make up the thoracic spine.
These structures have very little movement because they are firmly attached to the ribs and sternum. Because there is very little movement, the vertebrae in the thoracic spine are usually not sources of back pain.
The thoracic vertebrae articulate with the ribs, each of which will be related to some rib. The fourth thoracic vertebra is directly attached to the head of the fifth rib. For this reason, if a patient has a dislocation of the fourth thoracic vertebra, the lesion is involving the head of the fifth rib.
