The ovaries are located in the lateral wall of what cavity?
uterus
What is the hemopeotic organ found lateral to the stomach on the left side of the peritoneal cavity?
The spleen is the hemopoeitic organ lateral to the stomach o the left side of the peritoneal cavity.
What organs are inferior to the diaphragm lateral to the vertebral column and behind the peritoneal cavity?
The kidneys are in the retroperitoneal space, located inferior to the diaphragm, lateral to the vertebral column, and deep to the peritoneal cavity.
What are nasal turbinates?
The nasal cavity is occupied to a large extent by nasal conchae. These are turbinate bones which project into the nasal cavity with the purpose of supporting the olfactory mucus membranes and increasing the respiratory surface area and they creating turbulence as air passes through.There are three turbinates (inferior, middle and superior) on each side of the nose, and their job is to clean and humidify the air as it moves through your nose into your lungs.

Where is the nasal conchea?
They are bones in the nasal cavity (or parts of other bones in the nasal cavity) that cause turbulence in the air moving through the nasal cavity. This will warm and moisten the air to help protect the lungs. There are three conchae in the nasal cavity, a superior, middle and inferior conchae (aka turbinates).
What organs are inferior to the diaphragm lateral to the vertebral column and behind the peritoneal cavity?
The kidneys are in the retroperitoneal space, located inferior to the diaphragm, lateral to the vertebral column, and deep to the peritoneal cavity.
Does the heart lie in the pleural cavity or the mediastinum?
In the mediastienum....the lungs are in the pleural cavity
What is the directional location of the lungs?
In the two lateral chambers of the thoracic cavity.
What is the gateway to the nasal cavity?
Naris (nostril) Cribriform plate (roof of the cavity) Sphenopalatine foramen (on lateral wall) Incisive canal (on cavity floor between nasal cavity & Palate)
What are the differences between the medial and lateral meniscus?
Both the Medial and lateral menisci are outside the synovial cavity but within the joint cavity. The Medial meniscus is larger than the lateral meniscus. The Medial meniscus is C shaped where as the lateral mensicus is circular shaped. The Medial meniscus is directly attached to the medial collateral ligament, where as the Popliteal muscle interferes in between the attachment of lateral meniscus and lateral collateral ligament.
What is the fluid filled cavity located in each hemisphere of the cerebrum?
lateral ventricle
Which best describes the position of the right pleural cavity?
Right Lateral to the mediastinum
