How the model is used in teaching
The trunk skeleton supports the body and protects the organs of the chest and pelvis. Its core is the vertebral column: 7 cervical, 12 thoracic and 5 lumbar vertebrae above the sacrum and coccyx, arranged in natural curves that absorb shock and keep the body balanced. The 12 pairs of ribs join the thoracic vertebrae behind and, through cartilage, the sternum in front to form the rib cage.
Because the model is fully flexible, the spine can be bent to show how the vertebrae move together, which helps in lessons on posture, spinal curvature and back injuries. The complete pelvis, with the ilium, ischium and pubis meeting at the pubic symphysis, lets students compare the pelvic girdle with the shoulder girdle formed by the clavicle and scapula.
