Chapter 1 The Human Body: An Orientation
Membranes in the Ventral Body Cavity • Serous Membrane or Serosa • Double layered membrane that covers the walls of the ventral body cavity and outer surface of the organs • Parietal serosa and visceral serosa
Membranes in the Ventral Body Cavity • Parietal serosa • The outer layer of the serous membrane that lines the cavity walls
Membranes in the Ventral Body Cavity • Visceral Serosa • The inner layer of the serosa that covers the organs of the ventral body cavity
Membranes in the Ventral Body Cavity • Serous fluid • Separates the serous membrane • Thin layer of lubricating fluid
Regions • Umbilical Region • Centermost region • Surrounding the navel
Regions • Epigastric Region • Superior to the umbilical region • Epi = upon, above • Gastri = belly
Regions • Hypogastric (pubic) Region • Located below the umbilical region • Hypo = below
Regions • Right and Left Iliac (Inguinal) Regions • Located lateral to the hypogastric region • Iliac = superior part of the hip bone
Regions • Right and Left Hypochondriac Region • Flank the epigastric region laterally • Chondro = cartilage
