Chapter 11, Problem 10WYL
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The muscle of respiration that is involved in the partition of thoracic and abdominopelvic cavities
Introduction:
The thoracic cavity is also known as the chest cavity. This cavity includes the various structure of the cardiovascular system and protects them from mechanical injury. The abdominopelvic cavity includes both the abdominal and pelvic cavity.
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The name of the structure from which all the muscles of diaphgram converge.
Introduction:
Diaphgram muscle separates the thoracic and abdominal cavity from each other. Diaphram is important for the normal function of respiration.
