Question

If a bullet were to penetrate a lung, which three anterior thoracic body cavities would it enter, and which layer of the serous membrane would it encounter first?

Answer 1

Answer:

First of all is ventral: cavity that makes up the thoracic and abdominopelvic cavity ventral: cavity that makes up the thoracic and abdominopelvic cavity

Secondly it is thoracic: chest cavity

And thirdly it is pleural cavities: which consist of ths lung cavity

That is it will encounter tbe parietal layer of the serous membrane first :lines cavity

Explanation:

The organs in the body are safely guarded by the membrane, cavities and sheaths(which has different compartment). They act to protect the organs in the body like lungs.

A person who was shot with a gun, the bullet must pass the body cavities when moving to the lungs. It must first pass through the 3 cavities before it arrives at the lungs that is the ventral cavity, thoracic cavity and the pleural cavity. The serous membrane is usually found within the walls of the thoracic cavity.
