Bell Work 1. A movement that pulls way from the midline
2. A movement toward the midline 3. A movement that decreases the angle between two body parts 4. A movement that increases the angle between two body parts. 5. Flexion at the ankle, so that the foot points more superiorly 6. Extension at the ankle, so that the foot points inferiorly.

Body Cavities

Body Cavities Figure 1.9a
5
Body Cavities Dorsal 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 cavity houses the internal organs (viscera), and is divided into two subdivisions: - Thoracic and Abdominopelvic cavities
6
Body Cavities Figure 1.9b
7
Body Cavities Pleural cavities – each houses a lung
Thoracic 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
8
Body Cavities The abdominopelvic cavity is separated from the superior thoracic cavity by the dome-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
10
Other Body Cavities Oral and digestive – mouth and cavities of the digestive organs Nasal –located within and posterior to the nose Orbital – house the eyes Middle ear – contain bones (ossicles) that transmit sound vibrations Synovial – joint cavities
11
Body Cavities In which cavity are the following organs found:
Name both the major and minor divisions. Spinal cord Lungs Brain Liver Bladder Small intestine
12
Body Cavities In which cavity are the following organs found:
Name both the major and minor divisions. Spinal cord Lungs Brain Liver Bladder Small intestine Dorsal, vertebral Ventral, thoracic Dorsal, cranial Ventral, abdominal Ventral, pelvic Ventral, abdominal
13
Abdominopelvic Regions
Umbilical Epigastric Hypogastric Right and left iliac or inguinal Right and left lumbar Right and left hypochondriac Figure 1.11a
14
Organs of the Abdominopelvic Regions

Abdominopelvic Quadrants
Right upper (RUQ) Left upper (LUQ) Right lower (RLQ) Left lower (LLQ) Figure 1.12
16
Game (Round 1) Right Upper Quadrant of Abdomen On the Abdominal Cavity
Umbilical Region Right Lumbar Region Hypogastric Region Right Lower Quadrant of Abdomen
17
Game (Round 2) – switch Left Lower Quadrant of Abdomen
Dorsal Body Cavity Epigastric Region Thoracic Cavity Left Lumbar Region Left Upper Quadrant of Abdomen
18
Game (Round 3) – Row Teams
Write on paper. Identify the body cavities. Use minor classification (not ventral / dorsal). Where the spinal cord is Where the lungs are Where the stomach is Where the ovaries are Where the kidneys are Where the brain is
19
Round 3 Where the spinal cord is Vertebral Where the lungs are Pleural
Where the stomach is Abdominal Where the ovaries are Pelvic Where the kidneys are Abdominal Where the brain is Cranial
