Question

word that describes the spaces of the body that contain the internal organs.
directional terms
body planes
body cavities
regional terms

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Directional Terms: Describe relative positions (e.g., anterior, posterior), not spaces with organs.
• Body Planes: Imaginary planes (e.g., sagittal, frontal) for anatomical analysis, not organ - containing spaces.
• Body Cavities: By definition, these are the spaces within the body that enclose internal organs (e.g., thoracic cavity, abdominal cavity).
• Regional Terms: Describe specific body regions (e.g., cervical, brachial), not spaces with organs.

So the correct option is the one that matches the description of spaces with internal organs.

Answer:

C. Body Cavities
