Body Cavities• Dorsal cavityDorsal cavity protects the nervous system,
and is divided into two subdivisions– Cranial cavity is within the skull and
encases the brain– Vertebral cavity runs within the vertebral
column and encases the spinal cord• Ventral cavityVentral cavity houses the internal organs
(viscera), and is divided into two subdivisions: - Thoracic, abdomanopelvic cavities

Body Cavities
• Thoracic cavityThoracic cavity is subdivided into pleural cavities, the mediastinum, and the pericardial cavity– Pleural cavities – each houses a lung– Mediastinum – contains the pericardial
cavity, and surrounds the remaining thoracic organs
– Pericardial cavity – encloses the heart

Body Cavities• The abdominopelvic cavity is separated The abdominopelvic cavity is separated
from the superior thoracic cavity by the from the superior thoracic cavity by the dome-shaped diaphragmdome-shaped diaphragm
• It is composed of two subdivisions– Abdominal cavity – contains the
stomach, intestines, spleen, liver, and other organs
– Pelvic cavity – lies within the pelvis and contains the bladder, reproductive organs, and rectum

Other Body Cavities• Oral and digestiveOral and digestive – mouth and cavities
of the digestive organs• NasalNasal –located within and posterior to the
nose• OrbitalOrbital – house the eyes• Middle earMiddle ear – contain bones (ossicles) that
transmit sound vibrations• SynovialSynovial – joint cavities
