Solution

Primary spine curvatures are the spinal curvatures that are present at birth, which include the thoracic and sacral curvatures. These curvatures are concave anteriorly.

  1. Concave anterior: This is associated with primary spine curvatures. The thoracic and sacral curvatures of the spine are concave anteriorly.

  2. Cervical curve: This is not associated with primary spine curvatures. The cervical curvature is a secondary curvature that develops after birth, specifically when a baby starts to hold up its head.

  3. Lumbar curve: This is not associated with primary spine curvatures. The lumbar curvature, like the cervical curvature, is a secondary curvature that develops later, specifically when a baby starts to walk.

  4. Convex anterior: This is not associated with primary spine curvatures. The primary curvatures (thoracic and sacral) are concave anteriorly, not convex.

  5. Lordosis: This term refers to an exaggerated lumbar curvature. It's not directly associated with primary spine curvatures, but rather with a possible abnormality or exaggeration of the secondary lumbar curvature.
