mediastinum
The parietal pleura is in the thoracic cavity, lining the inner chest wall atop the diaphragm.
It houses the ribs and chest muscles
thoracic and abdominopelvic cavity
There is no such thing as the pericardial cavity. The visceral pericardium is the outer layer of the heart, and also called the epicardium. The lining on the inside of the pericardium is called the parietal pericardium.
The cavity inside the trunk of the body is called the thoracic cavity. It houses the heart and lungs and is surrounded by the ribs and chest muscles. The diaphragm separates the thoracic cavity from the abdominal cavity below.
The thoracic cavity is just one large cavity. It is smaller than the abdominopelvic (otherwise called just the abdominal) cavity. The thoracic cavity is called your chest.
The parietal pleura is in the thoracic cavity, lining the inner chest wall atop the diaphragm.
The body cavity bounded by the ribs is the thoracic cavity. It contains the heart, lungs, and other structures involved in breathing and circulation.
The double membrane that covers the lungs and lines the thoracic cavity is called the pleura. It consists of two layers: the visceral pleura attached to the lungs and the parietal pleura lining the thoracic cavity. The pleura produces a small amount of fluid that helps reduce friction during breathing.
It houses the ribs and chest muscles
thoracic and abdominopelvic cavity
The thoracic cavity is superior to the abdominopelvic cavity.
a plura surrounds each lung, with a gap between the plura and the lung.
pleurisy
The Thoracic cavity (above the diaphragm) & the Abdominal cavity (below).
Thoracic cavity indicates your chest , the Abdominal cavity indicates your abdomen INFERIOR means under .Your chest is above your abdomen hence the thoracic cavity is SUPERIOR to the Abdominopelvic cavity.
There is no such thing as the pericardial cavity. The visceral pericardium is the outer layer of the heart, and also called the epicardium. The lining on the inside of the pericardium is called the parietal pericardium.
