AI overview

The neck is the part of your body that connects your head to your torso, and it supports your head's weight while protecting the nerves that carry signals between your brain and the rest of your body. Its flexibility allows your head to turn and move in different directions, and it contains important structures including vertebrae, the spinal cord, and parts of your respiratory and digestive systems.
