c) stomach and liver: superficial
d) heart and lungs: anterior
Answer:
d) heart and lungs: anterior
Explanation:
The thoracic cavity is one of the major body cavities. The thoracic cavity is also called the chest cavity. It is formed by the ribs, the chest muscles, the sternum (breastbone), and the thoracic portion of the vertebral column. It is present in the anterior to the cavity formed by the spine to house the spinal cord. The pericardial cavity is the fluid-filled space of the thoracic cavity present around the heart. The thoracic cavity also has two pleural cavities to house the lungs.
Answer:
Principle of cross-cutting relationships
Explanation:
The geologic principle that will provide the most profound explanation to this problem is the principle of cross-cutting relationships.
It states that "features that cross-cuts rocks are younger than the layer they cut through".
Some of these features are intrusions, faults and joints.
The logic behind this reasoning is that without the rock in place, the cross-cutting event wouldn't have been recorded.
We can liken this to a fracture on the wall of a building. If the wall is not erected, there wouldn't be any fracture. Therefore, the fracture is far younger than the wall.
Answer:
Your heart is a single organ, but it acts as a double pump. The first pump carries oxygen-poor blood to your lungs, where it unloads carbon dioxide and picks up oxygen. ... The second pump delivers oxygen-rich blood to every part of your body. Blood needing more oxygen is sent back to the heart to begin the cycle again.
