Basics of Anatomy and
Physiology
Amy L. Beard
Levels of Organization
Body Cavities – not the ones in your teeth
• Dorsal Cavity – Cranial Cavity and
Vertebral Canal
• Ventral Cavity – Thoracic Cavity,
Diaphragm and Abdominopelvic Cavity
• Oral Cavity
• Nasal Cavity
• Orbital Cavities
• Middle Ear Cavities
More Cavities
• Abdominopelvic Cavity – Abdominal and
Pelvic Cavities
• Synovial Cavity – surrounds freely
moveable joints
Pictures of
Cavities –
How many
faces do
you see?

What organs belong to which
cavity?
• Thoracic Cavity – Heart, lungs
• Abdominal Cavity – Stomach, liver,
spleen, gall bladder, kidneys, most of
small and large intestines
• Pelvic Cavity - Terminal portion of the
large intestine, urinary bladder, internal
reproductive organs

Body Sections
• Axial – Head, Neck and Trunk
• Appendicular – Upper and Lower Limbs

Relative Positions
• Anatomical Position – Standing erect, face and
plams are facing forward
• Superior
• Inferior
• Anterior
• Posterior
• Medial
• Lateral
• Proximal
• Distal
• Superficial
• Deep
Protective Membranes
• Serosa (serous membrane) – covers the
walls of the ventral cavity and the outer
sufraces of organs
• Parietal Serosa – lines the cavity walls –
this folds on itself to form the Visceral
Serosa, covering the organs in the cavity
• Serous fluid – separates serous
membranes – not air
