vagus nerve
The cavities of the body can be divided into two parts, the ventral (front) and the dorsal (back). If you divide the dorsal into the cranial and vertebral, and the ventral into the thoracic, abdominal, and pelvic, then you would have five cavities. * cranial * vertebral * thoracic * abdominal * pelvic
Olfactory
The olfactory nerve, also known as cranial nerve I, conducts impulses from the nose to the olfactory bulbs in the brain. It is responsible for the sense of smell.
In the cranial cavity, you would find the brain. The spinal cavity houses the spinal cord. The thoracic cavity contains the heart and lungs, while the abdominal cavity holds organs like the stomach, liver, and intestines.
Transverse
The trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve V) conducts sensory impulses from the teeth and face. It is the largest cranial nerve and has three main branches (ophthalmic, maxillary, and mandibular) that innervate different regions of the face.
The Thoracic cavity (above the diaphragm) & the Abdominal cavity (below).
No, the dorsal cavity does not contain the thoracic, abdominal, or pelvic cavities. The dorsal cavity is divided into the cranial cavity, which houses the brain, and the spinal cavity, which contains the spinal cord. The thoracic, abdominal, and pelvic cavities are part of the ventral cavity, which is located at the front of the body.
thoracic and abdominopelvic cavity
The vagus nerve (cranial nerve X) supplies innervation to most thoracic and abdominal organs, including the heart, lungs, stomach, and intestines. It plays a key role in regulating many vital functions such as heart rate, digestion, and breathing.
The Thoracic cavity (above the diaphragm) & the Abdominal cavity (below).
The vagus nerve, also known as cranial nerve X, is the nerve that innervates the thoracic and abdominal viscera. It plays a crucial role in regulating various organ functions, including digestion and heart rate.
