the thymus
chest cavity (Laryngeal cavity)
The Mediastinum doesn't contain either, it contains the heart, thymus gland, portions of the esophagus and trachea among other structures. It's located between the Lungs and is separeted into the anterior, middle, posterior, and superior Mediastinum regions. I hope this clears things up.
The lungs are directly lateral to the mediastinum.
The heart is located in the thoracic cavity, specifically within the mediastinum. The mediastinum is the central compartment of the thoracic cavity, situated between the lungs, and contains not only the heart but also other structures such as the trachea, esophagus, and major blood vessels.
The anatomical cavity that contains all of the thoracic viscera except the lungs is the mediastinum. The mediastinum is located between the lungs and extends from the sternum to the vertebral column, and from the thoracic inlet to the diaphragm. It houses vital structures such as the heart, great vessels, trachea, esophagus, and thymus gland.
The space between the 2 lungs is called the Mediastinum where the heart is located
i think that your lungs would be dried out.
Heart lies in mediastinum. The wall of mediastinum and phrenic nerve lies between the heart and lungs. Phrenic nerve supply to the diaphragm.
