4. Attach to ribs: Thoracic

5. Articulates with hip bones of the pelvis: Sacrum

Explanation:

The vertebral column is a <u>series of 33 bones called vertebrae</u> that play a key role in organ protection, movement of body, and overall support. The column has been divided into <u>5 different regions</u> with the number of bones.

They are responsible for the movement of the head.  They have <u>transverse foramina</u> which <u>gives passage to vertebral artery and vein</u>.

<em><u>3. Lumbar Vertebrae: </u></em>This is the largest segment of the vertebral column that consists of 5 bones between the rib cage and pelvis. They <u>carry all of the upper body weight</u> providing flexibility and movement to the trunk region.  This is why it can <u>receive the most stress easily</u>.

<em><u>4. Sacrum Vertebrae: </u></em>There are 5 sacral vertebral fused bones. It <u>connects to the hip bones and play role in forming a strong pelvis</u>.

Which of the following would most likely be found in the sands at Myrtle Beach?
sergejj [24]

The correct answer is option A, that is, placer deposits.  

The concentration of heavy deposits known as the placer deposits are produced by the gravitational action, generally found in streams. The minerals that take place as placer deposits comprise copper, gold, magnetite, cassiterite, and copper.  

The formation of placer deposits takes place when the metal-bearing rock on land is weathered and the generated debris is washed down to the sea by the rivers. Further by the action of waves, currents, and rides the particles of heavy metal gets amassed to produce mineral sand deposits. These generally occur as beach deposits.
