The correct Answer is:
To complete the paragraph regarding the formation of the thoracic chamber, we need to identify the structures that form its boundaries: 1. **Dorsally**: The thoracic chamber is formed dorsally by the **vertebral column**. The vertebral column, or spine, is located at the back of the thoracic cavity and provides support and protection for the spinal cord. 2. **Ventrally**: The thoracic chamber is formed ventrally by the **sternum**. The sternum, or breastbone, is located at the front of the thoracic cavity and serves as an attachment point for the ribs. 3. **Laterally**: The thoracic chamber is formed laterally by the **ribs**. The ribs are curved bones that form the sides of the thoracic cavity, protecting the lungs and heart. 4. **Lower side**: The thoracic chamber is formed on the lower side by the dome-shaped **diaphragm**. The diaphragm is a muscular structure that separates the thoracic cavity from the abdominal cavity and plays a crucial role in the process of breathing. Putting it all together, the completed paragraph is: "The thoracic chamber is formed dorsally by the **vertebral column**, ventrally by the **sternum**, laterally by the **ribs**, and on the lower side by the dome-shaped **diaphragm**."
