A section through the C-5 spinal ganglion and the conus swellings of the heart.

Observe:
1. The vagus nerve lateral to the esophagus and trachea.
2. The pulmonary artery ventral to the trachea.
3. The phrenic nerve lateral to the right atrium.
4. The septum primum and septum secundum between the right and left atria.
5. The olfactory fila between the olfactory epithelium and the primordial tuberculum olfactorium.
