(Ventral, Front)                                                                                                (Dorsal, Back)

Cranial cavity

(contains brain in skull)

 

spinal cavity

( contains the spinal cord)

 

Thoracic cavity

(Chest contains pleural cavities and mediastinum)

 

Diaphragm

(separates thoracic and abdominal)

 

Abdominal cavity

(peritoneum, encases the digestive organs)

 

Pelvic cavity

(contains bladder and female reproductive organs)

Frontal/coronal plane separates the body into anterior and posterior

 

Sagittal/lateral separates the body into right and left

 

Transverse/horizontal separates the body into cross-sections from head to toe
