Eva8 [605]

To the abdominal cavity.
Alla [95]

Answer:

The thoracic cavity is <u>superior</u><u> </u>to the abdominal cavity.

Explanation:

The thorax and abdomen are part of the torso, in the human body. The inside of both forms a cavity that houses most of the internal organs.

Anatomically, the thoracic cavity -which contains the heart, lungs, and large vessels- is in a superior position with respect to the abdominal cavity, which contains the organs of the digestive, renal, and genitourinary systems.

The other options are not correct because:

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

  • <u><em>Caudal</em></u><em> refers to any area that is below another, closer to the lower body. </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>
