Explanation / Answer

7 towards the body surface and closer to skin

Superficial is having on surface or occurring on top and the statement body surface means it.

8 Towards the torso of body

Deep mean going down from surface and here when we go down from torso we can say it as deep down.

9 the posterior side of body contains cranial and spinal cavities.

The dorsal body cavity is located along the dorsal (posterior) surface of the human body, where it is subdivided into the cranial cavity housing the brain and the spinal cavity

10 on the anterior side of body contains thoracic cavity, and the abdominopelvic cavity

The ventral body cavity is a human body cavity that is in the anterior (front) aspect of the human body. It is made up of the thoracic cavity, and the abdominopelvic cavity.

11 divides the body into left and right section made parallel to body’s longitudinal axis

The sagittal plane or median plane (longitudinal, anteroposterior) is a plane parallel to the sagittal suture. It divides the body into left and right.
