Answer: The thoracic cavity contains the heart, lungs and many of the main vessels of the circulatory system. It is found anterior to the vertebral cavity.
Explanation:
The thoracic cavity is the second largest hollow space of the body and it is the space limited by the ribs, the vertebral column, and the sternum. It is the upper region of the body starting from the neck and ending where the diaphragm ends. So, it is separated from the abdominal cavity by the diaphragm. It contains 12 ribs, and 7 of them attach directly to the sternum, 3 attach to the sternum via cartilages and 2 do not attach to the sternum at all and are called floating ribs. The cavity contains several organs, such as the lungs, heart, great vessels and esophagus.
The abdominal cavity spaces around the organs are filled with the core muscles that attach to the posterior spine. Besides. the ribs vertically, horizontally and across the abdominal region.
The vertebral cavity is the posterior portion of the dorsal cavity, it contains the spinal cord within the vertebral column, the meninges and the fluid-filled spaces between them. It is formed by the vertebrae through which the spinal cord passes.
<u>The thoracic cavity is anterior to the vertebral cavity, because anterior describes the front or direction toward the front of the body</u>.
Answer: Liver
Explanation:
The hepatic portal system of liver connects the capillaries of the gastrointestinal tract to the liver. The nutrient rich blood from the gastrointestinal tract reaches the liver.
The blood that is returned back to the heart is first bought to liver and then it is returned back to the heart.
From the liver after processing the blood goes into heart for further processing.
Hence, the correct answer is option d
The term is normally applied to a group of between six and nine elements (boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony, tellurium, and possibly bismuth, polonium, astatine) found near the center of the P-block or main block of the periodic table.
This refers to a trait that should be able to be treated with antibiotics but instead the trait has built up a resistance to this trait, sometimes this will even make the trait stronger. This can become fatal if the trait is resistant to all antibiotics available
Answer:
The radiant energy of the sun is used by chlorophyll as an energy source to excite photosystems I and II, which are located in the membrane of the thylakoid.
Explanation:
When the light energy is converted into chemistry inside the photosystem, electrons are released and travel from photosystem II to photosystem I, through a protein complex; plastoquinone, cytochrome B, and plastocyanin.
When light hits, enzymes with REDOX power are activated while in photosystem I, one of the electrons converts NADP to NADPH, capturing protons from the stroma. Finally the NADPH and the ATP generated by the ATP synthetase of the thylakoid membrane, are products of the light stage of photosynthesis
