Instruments and material the same as for the general study. Specimen.—The same specimen may be used, or if a different one is used, it should be prepared in the same way (§ 709). PERITONEUM. § 725. Peritoneum.—The peritoneum is a serous sac lining tlie abdomen. It gives the ental aspect of the abdominal wall its smooth, glistening appearance. It may be sep- arated easily from the abdominal wall over a small area with the tracer. The peritoneal sac is closed in the male, but in the female the Fallopian tubes open into it, and hence it communicates, through these, with the exterior. The mesenteries and the ligaments of the liver, urocystis and uterus are formed by duplicatures of the peritoneum. All the organs of the abdomen are reaUy outside of the sac. The apparent presence of some of the organs within it, and the way in which the mesenteries are formed, may be readily understood from the following diagram (Fig. 78). This diagram represents an ideal transection of the cat's abdomen at the level of the kidneys. The kidneys (ren) are represented as projecting somewhat into the abdominal cavity, and covered only on their ventral sur- face by the peritoneum. The alimentary canal {Alt. canal), shown also in cross section, is represented as having moved far ventrad into the abdominal cavity, carrying with it a fold of peritoneum which forms the mesentery (§ 726).
