plane is an axis through a 3-D object
section is slice along a plane
Sagittal plane
vertical
divides to left and right portion
frontal/coronal
divides to anterior and posterior
transverse
horizontal
divides to superior and inferior
cranial cavity vs vertebral canal
brain vs spinal cord
ventral cavity

serous membranes
consists of parietal layer and visceral layer
