Yes, the mediastinum is a partition in the thoracic cavity that separates the lungs into right and left cavities. It does not divide the ventral body cavity. The ventral body cavity is divided by the diaphragm into the thoracic and abdominopelvic cavities.

The ventral cavity is made up of the abdominopelvic and thoracic cavities. The abdominopelvic cavity consists of the abdominal and pelvic cavities.
The thoracic framework consists of the rib cage, which is formed by the ribs, sternum, and thoracic vertebrae. On the ventral aspect, the sternum serves as the central bone, connecting to the ribs through costal cartilage. Dorsally, the thoracic vertebrae articulate with the ribs, providing support and protection for the spinal cord and thoracic organs. This framework allows for flexibility and movement while safeguarding vital structures within the thoracic cavity.
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
the ventral cavity contains the thoracic and abdominopelvic cavities(abdominal and pelvic cavities) the cranial cavity holds the brain and part of the spinal cord
