Document Content and Description Below

what are the three planes of the body? - transverse, sagittal, frontal (coronal) what plane cuts or divides the body into right and left portions? - sagittal (Always associate the sagittal plane wi... th your right and left side, like the right and left turning signals of a car. When a driver wants to signal a right turn, the right blinker turns on and the left blinker remains off. Alternatively, when a left signal is needed, only the left blinker should be activated.) what plane cuts or divides the body into front (anterior) and back (posterior) portions? - coronal (Imagine standing in line at the grocery store. People stand behind one another at a frontal plane) what plane cuts or divides the body into top (superior) and bottom (inferior) portions? - transverse (Think of the sun setting over a body of water: you have the sun at the top, the ocean at the bottom, and the transverse plane (horizon) in the middle. In this way, a sunset creates a transverse plane) what is another word for coronal? - frontal what is another word for transverse? - horizontal orientation and direction: above - superior orientation and direction: below - inferior orientation and direction: towards or in front of the body - anterior what is another word for anterior? - ventral what is another word for posterior? - dorsal orientation and direction: behind, towards the backside of the body - posterior orientation and direction: closer to the midline of the body - medial orientation and direction: farther away from the midline of the body - lateral orientation and direction: closer or toward the body trunk/chest/center of the body - proximal orientation and direction: farther and distancing away from the body trunk/chest/center of the body - distal orientation and direction: closer to the outer layer and surface of the body - superficial orientation and direction: away from the surface of the body - deep what is anterior to the esophagus? a) trachea b) lungs c) bronchioles d) larynx - a (the trachea is in front of the esophagus.) orientation and direction: the neck is ____ to the face - inferior orientation and direction: the chin is ____ to the navel - superior orientation and direction: the rib cage is ___ to the heart - ventral orientation and direction: the nose is ____ to the eyes - medial orientation and direction: the ears are ____ to the eyes - lateral orientation and direction: the fingers are ___ to the wrist - distal orientation and direction: the wrist is ____ to the fingers - proximal define: are the only bone cells that divide and become osteoblasts - osteogenic cells define: are cells that secrete matrix for bone formation - osteoblasts define: [Show More]
