Taxonomic definition

A vertebral artery is a branch of subclavian artery

] which ascends the cervical vertebrae [vertebra cervicalis

] and enters the cranial cavity [cavitas cranii

] lateral to the medulla oblongata [myelencephalon

] to join with its pair to form the basilar artery [arteria basilaris
