Alla [95]

<em>The other options are not correct because: </em>

  • <u><em>Anterior</em></u><em> means "ahead", which is not the relationship between thorax and abdomen. </em>
  • <u><em>Distal </em></u><em>has to do with anything that moves away from the center of the body, with the thoracic and abdominal cavities being proximal</em>
