We introduce spatial graph theory by defining some properties of spatial graphs that can be considered as generalisation of unknottedness and investigating relations between them. Everything is illustrated by giving examples. Finally, we show that there exist no minimally knotted planar spatial graphs on the torus. Minimally knotted entanglements of θ-n graphs are called ravels in chemistry.
