Q

Plane (axis)

A

imaginary flat surface that passes through body

19
Q

transverse or horizontal plane

A

horizontal plane divides the body into superior (top) and inferior (bottom)

20
Q

frontal or coronal plane

A

plane runs vertically dividing the body into anterior,ventral (front) and posterior , dorsal(back) side

21
Q

sagittal plane

A

runs vertically dividing the body into left or right ( doesn’t have to run through the middle)

22
Q

midsagittal or median plane

A

vertical line dividing the body into left and right ( this line runs through the center of the body)

23
Q

oblique plane

A

any type of line

24
oblique plane
any type of angle line that is not horizontal or vertical angle; line not parallel
25
What is a section?
slice parallel to an axis (REFER TO PIC)
26
superior
closer to head * chest is superior to the pelvis
27
inferior
closer to the feet * stomach is inferior to the heart
28
posterior
the back of the body / surface * heart is posterior to the sternum
29
anterior
the front of the body/ surface * stomach is anterior to the spinal cord
30
cranial
towards the head
31
caudal
towards the tail or rear (butt) * abdomen is caudal to the head
32
lateral
away from the midline of the body * lungs are medial to the shoulders

proximal
part of the body that is closer to the center of the body than another part or trunk attachmennt knee is proximal to the toes
34
distal
part of the body that is farther away from the center of the body than another part or trunk attachment * wrist is distal to the elbow
35
medial
towards the midline of body lungs are medial to the shoulders
36
rostral
directed toward the nose frontal love is rostral to the occipital lobe
37
ipsilateral

38
contralateral
the opposite side of the body * right arm is contralateral to the left leg
39
