Plains and Axis

Question 1

Sagittal/Median

Answer 1

Vertical plane passing through the body dividing it into right and left sections

Question 2

Frontal/lateral/Coronal

Answer 2

Vertical plane passing through the body diving it into anterior and posterior

Question 3

Transverse/Horizontal

Answer 3

Horizontal plane passing through the body dividing it into superior and inferior sections

Question 4

Axis

Answer 4

Point that runs through the center of a joint around which a part rotates

Question 5

Frontal Axis(Mediolateral Axis)

Answer 5

= Sagittal Plane: passes horizontally through the body from side to side

Movement is in the sagittal plane

Question 6

Sagittal Axis(Anteroposterior)

Answer 6

=Frontal Planes: passes horizontally through the body from front to back

Movement is in the frontal plane

Question 7

Vertical Axis

Answer 7

= Transverse Plane: passes vertically through the body from top to bottom

Movement is in the transverse plane

Question 8

Sagittal plane/Frontal Axis

Answer 8

Movement= Flexion and Extension

Question 9

Frontal Plane and Sagittal Axis

Answer 9

Movement is Abduction and Adduction

Question 10

Transverse Plane and Vertical Axis

Answer 10

Medial and Lateral Rotation
