Q

Body Cavaties

A

Dorsal cavity (protects nervous system, divided into cranial cavity, which is within the skill and encases the brain, and the vertebrral cavity, which runs within the vertebral column and encases the spinal cord), Ventral cavity (houses the internal organs, called viscera, divided into thoracic and abdominopelvic cavaties

34
Q

Dorsal Cavity

A

42
Q

Pleural cavities

A

each house a lung

43
Q

Mediastinum

A

contains the pericardial cavity, and surrounds the remainining thoracic organs
