peritoneal cavity
The body has four major cavities: cranial cavity (contains the brain), thoracic cavity (contains the heart and lungs), abdominal cavity (contains the stomach and intestines), and pelvic cavity (contains the reproductive organs and bladder).
The abdominal cavity
The body cavities located on the front side of the body include the thoracic cavity and the abdominal cavity. The thoracic cavity houses the heart and lungs, while the abdominal cavity contains digestive organs such as the stomach and intestines. Together, these cavities are part of the larger ventral body cavity, which is oriented toward the front of the body.
The two largest body cavities are the thoracic and abdominal cavities.
The abdominal cavity contains major body organs such as the stomach, liver, intestines, and kidneys. This cavity is lined with a membrane called the peritoneum and is filled with a fluid called peritoneal fluid to help protect and cushion the organs.
The abdominal cavity contains the stomach, intestines, spleen, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas.

The abdominal cavity.
The abdominal cavity contains major body organs such as the stomach, liver, intestines, and kidneys. This cavity is lined with a membrane called the peritoneum and is filled with a fluid called peritoneal fluid to help protect and cushion the organs.
There are not five cavities of the human body. There are the 1) cranium that holds the brain, 2) the thorax that hold the heart and lungs and stomach, liver, pancreas, spleen, appendix and kidneys and then 3) the bowels area that hold the small and large intestines, (the ovaries, uterus for women), the bladder and the testicles (for men).
No, the diaphram separates the thoracic cavity, which contains the heart and lungs, from the abdominal cavity, which contains the stomach, intestines, etc.
A cavity that houses body organs is called a body cavity. The main body cavities are the thoracic cavity, abdominal cavity, and pelvic cavity, which contain organs such as the heart, lungs, stomach, and intestines.
The body cavity that would pass through a transverse section at the level of the umbilicus is the abdominal cavity. This cavity contains the digestive organs such as the stomach, intestines, liver, and pancreas.
