Ventral Cavity The ventral cavity, the interior space in the front of the body, contains many different organ systems. The organs within the ventral cavity are also called viscera. The ventral cavity has anterior and posterior portions divided by the diaphragm; a sheet of skeletal muscle found beneath the lungs. 1. Thoracic A. Dorsal Cavity The thoracic cavity is the anterior ventral body The dorsal cavity is a continuous cavity located cavity found within the rib cage in the torso. It on the dorsal side of the body. It houses the houses the primary organs of the cardiovascular organs of the upper central nervous system, and respiratory systems, such as the heart and including the brain and the spinal cord. The lungs, but also includes organs from other meninges is a multi-layered membrane within systems, such as the esophagus and the the dorsal cavity that envelops and protects the thymus gland. The thoracic cavity is lined by two brain and spinal cord. types of mesothelium, a type of membrane 1.

The eleven organ systems are integumentary, skeletal, muscular, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, nervous, endocrine, circulatory, urinary, and reproductive systems. A human standing erect with the face directed forward, the arms hanging to the sides, and the palm's facing forward is in the anatomical position. The body can be divided into the head, neck, trunk, upper limbs, and lower limbs. The abdomen can be divided superficially into 4 quadrants or 9 regions Sagittal plane divides the body into left and right parts, transverse plane into superior and inferior parts, and frontal plane into anterior and posterior parts. The thoracic cavity is bounded by the ribs and the diaphragm. The mediastinum divides the thoracic cavity into two parts. The abdominal cavity is bounded by the diaphragm and the abdominal muscles. The pelvic cavity is surrounded by the pelvic bones.

The term bone has two meanings in anatomy—an entire organ such as the femur and mandible, or just the osseous tissue. Bones - osseous tissue, cartilage, bone marrow, dense irregular connective tissue, and other tissue types. Bone Cells OSTEOGENIC CELLS Haversian canal (central osteonic canal) - Blood Stem cells that give rise to most other bone cell vessels and nerves travel through these canals types Lamellae - onionlike layers around each canal Occur in the endosteum where bone matrix is deposited Some become osteoblasts Osteon – a central canal and its surrounding OSTEOBLASTS lamellae Bone-forming cells Synthesize organic matter Promote bone’s mineralization Osteogenesis OSTEOCYTES Former osteoblasts trapped in the matrix the deposited Reside in lacunae which are interconnected by canaliculi OSTEOCLASTS Bone-dissolving/ bone-resorbing cells on bone surfaces Osteolysis Most compact bone is arranged in cylinders of tissue Stem cells may fuse to form osteoclasts that surround central (osteonic) canals, which run longitudinally through the shafts of long bones such as the femur.
