A section through the C-7 spinal ganglion and left sinus horn.

Observe:
1. Three large brachial plexus nerves innervating the upper limb bud.
2. The junction of the dorsal aortas into a common midline vessel.
3. The junction of the left common cardinal vein with the left sinus horn.
4. The edge of the liver separated from the pericardial cavity by the septum transversum.
5. The muscular portion of the interventricular septum separating the ventricles.
