👉 Apophysis is a type of skeletal muscle in vertebrates, which are mammals. It's a muscular mass that can be found in both limb muscles and head muscles. The term "apophyges" comes from Greek and refers to an elongated or twisted shape.
👉 Apophysis is a type of bone that forms along the edges of a vertebral column. It is characterized by its thin, rounded surface and is often associated with the anterior field of vertebral bodies in the neck. The apophysis is typically smaller than the vertebral body itself and is connected to it through ligaments or muscles. Apophyseal joints are common in humans and are formed between two vertebrae that have articulations.
