 | | Located in the thoracic (chest) cavity, the lungs of mammals have a spongy texture and are honeycombed with a moist epithelium that functions as the respiratory surface. |  | | Also, when we inhale, the change of pressure in the thoracic (chest) cavity causes the venae cavae and other large veins near the heart to expand and fill with blood. |  | | Muscle action changes the volume of the rib cage and the chest cavity, and the lungs follow suit. |

| | Planaria 2 |
 | | During feeding, the pharynx can be everted through the mouth and used to suck up fluids and soft tissue from captured prey. |  | | Lacking a body cavity, the space between the gut and epidermis in these acoelomates is filled with a meshwork of mesodermal parenchyma as well as muscle fibers that run circularly, longitudinally and diagonally. |  | | On the outside of the flatworm is a ciliated epidermis that contains many gland cells as well as dark-staining rod-shaped bodies called rhabdites that can discharge their contents to form a protective mucous layer around the body. |

 | | One of the first types of digestive tracts was the gastrovascular cavity, currently found mostly in cnidarians (such as jellyfish, sea anemones). |  | | From the gastrovascular cavity evolved the alimentary canal, which, in contrast to the gastrovascular cavity, was a one-way digestive tract that had two openings: the mouth, where food entered the digestive tract, and the anus, where wastes exited the digestive tract. |  | | The first animals to have the alimentary canal were probably nematodes. |
