In the study on human vertebral composites, silicon was found to be related to the height of the vertebral column. The element ratio of silicon to calcium in the lumbar vertebra was twice that of the lowest one in the cervical vertebra. The element ratio gradually increased from approx 0.5 at the cervical vertebra to approx 1.0 at the lumbar one. Silicon is preserved catastropically much more in the lower height of the backbone in contrast with the calcium amount, and the ratio to sulfur appears to be unchanged. This suggests that silicon is compatible with the biokinetics of the vertebral bone structure of calcium.
在对人体椎骨复合物的研究中，发现硅与脊柱高度有关。腰椎中硅与钙的元素比率是颈椎中最低比率的两倍。该元素比率从颈椎处的约0.5逐渐增加到腰椎处的约1.0。与钙含量相比，硅在脊柱较低部位的灾难性保存量更多，并且与硫的比率似乎没有变化。这表明硅与钙的椎骨结构的生物动力学是相容的。
