Median Sagittal Plane- a sagittal cut that runs directly through the median. VS.
The Basic Regions • dorsal: toward the back of the body • ventral: toward the underside of the body • anterior (cranial): toward the head end of the body • posterior (caudal): toward the tail end of the body
Dorsal Anterior/ Superior Posterior/ Inferior Ventral
lateral: to the side of the body • median: toward the center of the body • right and left: the pig's right and left, not yours! • proximal or basal: closer to the trunk • distal: farther from the trunk
Lateral Proximal/ Basal Distal
Right Lateral Median Proximal/ Basal Left Distal
Body Regions • cranial region: head • cervical region: neck • thoracic region: trunk • caudal region: abdomoninal region/tail region • pelvic region: near pelvis • Pectoral region: shoulder area

Thoracic Cavity- above the diaphragm • Pericardial Cavity-contains heart Pleural Cavity-contains lungs Pericardial Cavity
Abdominal Cavity (Peritoneum) • Cavity below the diaphragm
Membranes- what is the function of the following? • Parietal Pleura • Visceral Pleura • Parietal Peritoneum • Visceral Peritoneum • Pericardium • Greater Omentum • Mesentery
Break it down… • Parietals – Line the CAVITY they are in • Viscerals – Line the ORGANS • Pleura – refers to the chest area (pleural cavity) • Peritoneum – refers to the abdominal area • Pericardial – peri = around; cardial= the heart • Greater Omentum- holds the spleen in place by attaching it to the stomach • Mesentery- between the parts of the small intestine
So let’s try this again… • Parietal Pleura • Visceral Pleura • Parietal Peritoneum • Visceral Peritoneum • Pericardium • Greater Omentum • Mesentery
Which membrane covers the organs of the chest area? • Parietal pleura • Parietal peritoneum • Visceral pleura • Visceral peritoneum • Pericardium • Greater omentum
Which membrane attaches the spleen to the stomach? • Parietal pleura • Parietal peritoneum • Visceral pleura • Visceral peritoneum • Pericardium • Greater omentum
Which membrane lines the chest area cavity? • Parietal pleura • Parietal peritoneum • Visceral pleura • Visceral peritoneum • Pericardium • Greater omentum
Other membrane types • Synovial Membranes - • These membranes secrete a fluid to lubricate the ends of bones in joints. • Serous Membranes • These membranes secrete a watery fluid to keep the organs in the cavities lubricated and separated so they are able to move. • Meninges • These membranes provide a protective covering for the brain and spinal cord. • Mucous Membranes • These membranes line the tubes of the digestive system, respiratory system, urinary system, and reproductive system for protection.
