The two main body cavities include the [blank_start]posterior[blank_end] aspect and the [blank_start]ventral[blank_end] cavity. The [blank_start]Posterior[blank_end] aspect includes the [blank_start]cranial[blank_end] cavity and the [blank_start]vertebral canal[blank_end]. The [blank_start]ventral[blank_end] cavity includes the [blank_start]thoracic[blank_end] cavity, and the [blank_start]abdominopelvic[blank_end] cavity. This cavity can be further subdivided into the [blank_start]abdominal[blank_end] cavity and the [blank_start]pelvic[blank_end] cavity
