The vertebral column, also known as the spine or spinal column, is a series of bones called vertebrae that run along the center of the back and protect the spinal cord. It is found in all major groups of vertebrates, including mammals, fishes, reptiles, and birds. The other options (mandible, scapula, and femur) are individual bones found in specific regions of the body and are not part of the vertebral column.
