A friend asks for you help in learning the different cavities of the body. She is knows where the spine and abdominal cavity are
located. However, she is having trouble understanding the location of the thoracic cavity. What is the best description of the location of the thoracic cavity using what she already knows? A) The thoracic cavity is located anterior to the spine, superior to the abdominal cavity, and inferior to the neck. B) The thoracic cavity is located anterior to the spine, inferior to the abdominal cavity, and superior to the neck. C) The thoracic cavity is located dorsal side of the spine, superior to the abdominal cavity, and inferior to the neck. D) The thoracic cavity is located on the ventral side of the spine, inferior to the abdominal cavity, and superior to the neck.
The thoracic cavity is the anterior ventral body cavity found within the rib cage in the torso. It houses the primary organs of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, such as the heart and lungs, but also includes organs from other systems, such as the esophagus and the thymus gland.
There are small tubes that connect all parts of a plant or a tree with the root. The root then applies root pressure to the nutrients and the nutrients and the water are pumped towards the upper parts through these small tubes.
