Q

What does anterior and posterior mean? Draw shapes and identify which is in the anterior/posterior position

A 
anterior means how much more in front are you. posterior -refers to the back position. 
so if I have x y | z 
x is anterior to y and z 
y is anterior to z but posterior to x 
| is the midsagittal plane

Q

Describe what is the medial and lateral position- which plane do we evaluate this?

A

Medial means closer to the mid-sagittal line, and lateral means further from the mid-sagittal line.
mid-saggital plane is used as reference

37
Q

how are body cavities divided?

A

dorsal and ventral
dorsal is posterior
ventral is anterior

Q

How is the ventral body cavity divided

A

recall your trunk is divided into TAP ( thoracic, abdominal and pelvic).

  • the thoracic and abdominal region are separated by the diaphragm
  • the abdominal and pelvic region are continuous
39

A
  1. superior mediastinum
  2. pleural cavity
  3. pericardial cavity
40
Q

What does the superior mediastinum contain

A

arch of aorta, trachea, thymus, esphagus
