I think it depends on the writer, but I think that it is definitely a possibility for nat'l level stuff to be at states. Last year (I'm from NY) at states, they definitely had Nat'l level stuff, and it did get quite in depth. I would actually have to say that my state test last year was harder than the nat'l event last year. SO I would say for states- know it just in case.

thoracic vertebrae have very obvious wings- as the ribs need to articulate into the vertebrae. the sacrum is 5 FUSED vertebrae. im not sure about cervical and lumbar.

Well... cervical are smaller, I guess...

Cervical are the smallest vertebrae and they are also very flat because the head needs to pivot on them (atlas and axis). The Lumbar are the biggest. They have a very thick body

I'm not sure about the bones, but for the heart (if anyone needs it) http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/ is a GREAT site for the diseases. It has most of the heart diseases, and is a REALLY useful resource.
