It opens to the vagina below it, and the uterus itself. Three major tissue layers make up the thick wall of the uterus; the endometrium, myometrium, and perimetrium. The endometrium forms the inner, mucosal layer. It lines the uterine cavity. The lining itself consists of glandular epithelium, connective tissue, and blood vessels.

Ciliated Columnar Epithelium are simple columnar epithelial cells but they have fine, hair like cilia on their free surfaces. These cilia are capable of rhythmic, rapid wavelike beatings in a certain direction. This movement causes mucus, secreted by the goblet cells, to move in the same direction. They are usually found in air passages like the nose. It's also found in the uterus and fallopian tubes.
The Cerebrum is located in the upper most part of the brain and divided into left and right hemispheres which are divided again into four different lobes. Its functions actually give us the ability to read, speak, write, calculate, compose music, remember, plan, motor function, perceiving and touch sensation. This section of the brain has proved to be the most developed and as well as the largest part of the brain. (Pages 428- 430) 4. White matter is made up of myelinated axons; the white of myelin is where White matter actually gets its name from.
The main function of the pituitary gland is to regulate the human growth hormone (HGH) and weight; main controller along with the genes of final height of a person. A malfunction in the pituitary gland can cause hypersecretion which results in gigantism or acromegaly and hypo secretion can result in dwarfism. The Thyroid Gland: The Thyroid gland is a very small vascular organ that is located in the neck. It consists of two lobes, one on each side of the trachea, just below the larynx or the voice box. The two lobes are
Nasal cavity – Preferred entrance for outside air into the respiratory system. The hairs that line the inside wall are part of the air-cleansing system. Larynx – Voice box. Contains the vocal chords. Moving air breathed in and out creates sound.
Medulla Located at the top of the spinal cord. Controls breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure. 10. Pons Above the medulla, and controls sensory information. It also controls facial exspretions.
Taste and mechanical stimuli from the tongue and other areas of the mouth excite parasympathetic nerve impulses in the a efferent limbs of the salivary reflex which travel via the glossopharyngeal (CN IX), facial (CN VII), vagal (CN X) (taste) and the trigeminal (CN V) (chewing) cranial nerves.these afferent impulses are carried to the salivary nuclei located approximately at the juncture of the pons and the medulla. In turn impulses from the salivary centers can be modulated by impulses from the higher centers in the central nervous system. Parasympathetic stimulation also increases the blood flow to the salivary glands, increasing the supply of nutrition.Sympathetic stimulation can also increase salivary flow to a moderate extent but much less so than parasympathetic
(Figure 1) Figure 1 Title Visceral Contents The Gastro intestinal tract is supported from the posterior abdominal wall via the Mesenteries’ part of the peritoneum The mesenteries’ are the doubled up layers of peritoneum that holds up the jejunum and the ileum for example. The position of the organs in terms of its relation to the peritoneum gives it a named classification so for example an organ that is immersed or completely surrounded by a layer of peritoneum will be called Intraperitoneal and if it is only touched by the peritoneum on its anterior border it will be called Retroperitoneal such as the kidneys. Which is not strictly in the A.C. – O yes they are, may be behind the peritoneum, but they are in the cavity if you define it according to the muscular walls. They may have started in the pelvic cavity, but the adult location is
