Types of vertebra? Vertebrae are divided into sections: the atlas and axis account for the first cervical vertebrae, of which there are 7 in total; there are 12 thoracic vertebrae, 7 lumbar vert â¦ ebrae, 1 sacrum (5 separate vertebrae in a baby), and 1 coccyx (4 separate vertebrae in a baby).here are Five different types of Vertebrae in the Vertabral collumn (spine). 1) Cervical Vertebrae (7) 2) Thoracic Vertebrae (12) 3) Lumbar Vertebrae (5) 4) Sacral Ve â¦ rtebrae (5) 5) Coccygeal Vertebrae (3). + 33 others found this useful.

L3 (3rd Lumbar Vertebra) The L3 vertebra is in the middle of the five (5) lumbar vertebrae in the lower back portion of the spinal column. Because of the substantial weight-bearing role of the L3, a role it shares with all the lumbar vertebrae, this boneâs vertebral arch and cylindrical centrum (vertebral body) are massively built-among the largest of the moveable vertebrae.
