What is a torso?

Hi everyone,
Can someone explain what the torso is in the human body? I'm trying to understand which parts it includes. Thanks!

The torso is the central part of the human body, excluding the head, arms, and legs. It houses vital organs such as the heart, lungs, stomach, liver, and intestines. The torso is divided into the chest, abdomen, and back. It provides structure, supports movement, and protects essential organs within the rib cage and abdominal cavity.

The torso, also referred to as the trunk, is the main section of the human body that comprises the chest, abdomen, pelvis, and back, and to which the head, arms, and legs are attached.
