Answer:

Abrasion

Explanation:

An abrasion is a superficial injury to the skin, usually caused by scratching, "grating", burning or brushing. This injury occurs when the skin scratches a hard surface and small blood vessels rupture in the outer layer of the skin. Abrasions are usually minor injuries that you can treat at home, but it is important to wash the affected area with soap and water, but not to rub the wound. Remove all dirt particles from the area and let tap water run over it for a few minutes. Dirty abrasion that is not well cleaned can cause scarring.

To the abdominal cavity.

Alla [95]

Answer:

The thoracic cavity is superior 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:

The other options are not correct because:

Caudal refers to any area that is below another, closer to the lower body.
Anterior means "ahead", which is not the relationship between thorax and abdomen.
