intervertebral foramen: a U shaped opening, rather than a circular hole? (mostly)

Is the intervertebral foramen an upside-down U shaped opening in the base of (what part of?) each vertebra? (By what part of I mean I know it's not a part of the part of the vertebra that's stacked on disks & each other, but rather the dorsal parts extending back from the stacked parts to which tendons or muscles are attached; what are those parts called?) So is the foramen U shaped, not a circular hole, between the stacked parts and the attachment parts? (Except perhaps at the sacrum, where apparently the U of one vertebra joins with the U of the next lower to form an actual hole, because of the fusing together of the vertebra.) And if so, how to include all this information in the article itself? UnderEducatedGeezer (talk) 23:12, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
