Quiz 3 Review Flashcards
What do you call the imaginary line (plane) that divides the body into “equal” left and right sides?
Median plane or Midsagittal plane
What is a sagittal plane?
Any plane created by an imaginary plane that is parallel to median/midsagittal plane.
What do you call the imaginary line (plane) that divides the body at any level into anterior and posterior part? (divides body into front and back parts)
Frontal plane or Coronal plane
What is a horizontal plane?
- An imaginary line that divides the body into superior and inferior parts.
- They do NOT have to be equal parts
- (This is always perpendicular to the median/ midsagittal plane)*
What do you call a flat bony structure?
Plate
(Know where the Cribriform plate and Orbital plate are located- slide 4 of review packet)
What do you call a straight, small ridge?
Line
(Know where the superior temporal line and inferior temporal line are located-slide 5 of review packet)
What is a Tuberosity?
A large, often rough prominence
(Know location maxillary tuberosity-slide 6 of review packet)
What does the occipital bone articulate with?
The occipital bone articulates with the parietal, temporal, and sphenoid of the skull.
What big hole do you see on the external surface of the occipital bone from the inferior view?
Foramen Magnum
Where is the superior orbital fissure located?
Lateral to the optic canal between the greater and lesser wings of the sphenoid bone.
(it is curved and slitlike)
True/ False:
The inferior orbital fissure cannot be seen between the greater wing of the sphenoid bone and the maxilla.
FALSE
(It can be seen)
(Know the locations of the greater wing of sphenoid bone, inferior orbital fissure, and maxilla-slide 11 on review packet)

True/ False:
Each temporal bone is scomposed of four parts: the squamous, tympanic, petrous, and zygomatic process.
FALSE!
