Anatomy Chapter 2 The Human Body

Map of the Human Body Body Cavities The body has 2 cavities that hold and protect the organs. Dorsal Cavity- back of the body Ventral Cavity- front of the body

Dorsal Cavities Is a posterior cavity Is divided into 2 smaller cavities Cranial Cavity- houses the brain Spinal Cavity- contains the spinal column

Ventral Cavities Is an anterior cavity Is divided into main, smaller cavities 1. Thoracic Cavity a. contains the heart, lungs, and blood vessels b. upper Cavity 2. Cavity a. lower cavity contains the digestive organs (stomach, intestines, liver etc.) b. the lower cavity contains the called the pelvic cavity contains urinary and reproductive organs and last part of the large intestine. Abdominopelvic

Body Regions The body has been divided into regions to help better understand body locations and to help with directional terms. The abdominal region is outlines for you on page 33. The remainder of them are on pages 36-37 in your book.

Abdominal Quadrants It is more practical for health professionals to divide the body into 4 quadrants. This helps them when trying to locate abdominal pain. There are 4 quadrants RLQ- Right Lower Quadrant LLQ- Left Lower Quadrant RUQ- Right Upper Quadrant LUQ- Left Upper Quadrant
