D. BODY CAVITIES AND REGIONS
The inside of the human body contains the viscera, or internal or-
gans. The viscera are found in any of a number of cavities (spaces)
within the body (Figure 1-3). The two principal groups of body cavi-
ties are the dorsal cavities and the ventral cavities. Because these
spaces are so large, they are sometimes subdivided into smaller units.
☐ 1 Using a dissectible torso model, find these divisions of the
dorsal cavities (and the organs within):
□ Cranial cavity-Within the skull. Organ: brain
spinal cord
Spinal cavity-Within the vertebral column. Organ:
□ 2 Using the torso model, find these divisions and organs of
the ventral cavities:
adh will no
Thoracic cavity-Within the rib cage
□ Pleural cavities-Left one-third and right one-third
of the thoracic cavity. Organ: lung
□ Mediastinum-Middle one-third of thorax. Organs:
heart, trachea, esophagus

□ Abdominopelvic cavity-From the diaphragm to the
bottom of the trunk
□ Abdominal cavity-From the diaphragm to the rim of
the pelvic bones. Organs: stomach, liver, most of the
intestines, pancreas, spleen, kidneys
Pelvic cavity-From the pelvic rim to the floor of the
trunk. Organs: portions of the intestines, ovaries.
uterus, urinary bladder
In addition to the dorsal cavities and the ventral
cavities, there are many smaller spaces in local re-
gions of the body also named as cavities (e.g., the oral
cavity and nasal cavity). The location and outlines of
important body cavities are described in the textbook.
3 Because the abdominopelvic cavity is so large and contains
so many different organs, it is often convenient to subdivide
it into nine abdominopelvic regions (Figure 1-4). The re-
gions are bounded by a grid made by imagining two hori-
zontal planes (one just below the ribs, the other just above
the hip bones) and two sagittal planes (each just medial to
a nipple). This arrangement forms a three-dimensional
(3D), tic-tac-toe grid in the abdominopelvic cavity. Label
each of the nine regions on Figure 1-4, and then identify
the approximate location of each region on a model of the
human torso:
Right hypochondriac region-Top right region (hypo-
chondriac means "below [rib] cartilage")
no Epigastric region-Top middle region (epigastric
means "near the stomach")
□ Left hypochondriac region-Top left regionabi
□ Right lumbar region — Middle right region (lumbar refers
to lumbar vertebrae in lower back)
□ Umbilical region-Central region (umbilical refers to
the umbilicus, or navel) bus labo
□Left lumbar region-Middle left region (lumbar refers
to lumbar vertebrae in lower back)
□ Right iliac region-Lower right region (iliac refers to
ilium, the bowl-like part of the hip bone)
Hypogastric region-Lower middle region (hypogastric
means “below the stomach") a
Ingre
Left iliac region-Lower left region D
□4 Physicians and other health professionals often use a sim-
pler method to divide the abdominopelvic cavity. Using one
horizontal line intersecting with one vertical line at the
umbilicus, the abdominopelvic cavity can be easily seg-
mented into four quadrants (see Figure 1-4). Identify the
approximate locations of each of the four quadrants on a
model of the human torso:
Right upper quadrant (RUQ)
☐ Left upper quadrant (LUQ)
□ Right lower quadrant (RLQ)
Left lower quadrant (LLQ)
