The backbone is made up of individual bones called vertebrae. What is this group called?
Correct Answer:
Vertebrae
Explanation:
Think of the spine as a stack of individual bones that form a single rod-like structure. Those individual bones are called vertebrae, and together they make up the backbone, also known as the vertebral column or spine. The other options refer to different parts of the skeleton (skull, hip girdle, ankle), not the backbone. So the group of bones that forms the backbone is vertebrae.
