The biggest vertebrae is probably from a mosasaur, and the smallest one is from a fish. Hope this helps!!!:)

Hard to tell what the first one is, maybe a shark tooth root lobe. The second is from Enchodus. The large vertebra is from a bony fish, the other is shark or Ray.

I agree with @Al Dente for the vertebrae.

I'm wondering if the first could be a Squatiniformes tooth...angel shark.

Looks rather large to be angle shark.

The large vert. is shark, and take a look at the 6th picture you posted of the tooth - it has an indented area (I'm sure there a scientific term for that) between the tooth and bone that I see on all my similar Enchodus pieces. I'm pretty sure it's Enchodus.
