HUMAN BIOLOGY (ANATOMY, CELLS&TISSUE, BODY STRUCTURE)

• What do you call the way of describing the anatomy of an organism so that it is easy to understand what part of the body is being talked about no matter what direction the organism is facing or where it's appendages or limbs are?

  Standard Anatomical Position (SAP)
• What is the term for the imaginary surfaces that run through the body and divide it into different sections?

  Body Planes
• What do you call a portion or slice of the body created by a cut through a plane?

  Body Section
• 3 BODY PLANES (SECTION)

  • SAGITTAL PLANE (vertical)
  • CORONAL PLANE (vertical)
  • TRANSVERSE PLANE (horizontal)
• What plane Runs from top to the bottom, and front to back. and Divides the body into right and left sections ?

  Sagittal Plane
• What is the term for the right side and left side of a sagittal plane, respectively?

  Midsagittal Plane (also known as Median Plane) and Parasagittal Plane
• What is the name for a plane that has Frontal means front view, a vertical plane as well, Runs from top to the bottom, and right to left and Divides the body into front (anterior) and back (posterior) sections?

  Coronal Plane (Frontal Plane)
• This means "top view". Also called as "axial plane" or "horizontal plane" It runs from right to left, and front to the back. This also divides the body into top (superior) and bottom (interior) sections. What is this?

  Transverse Plane
• What plane is perpendicular to the Transverse plane? Example of this is the Coronal and Sagittal Plane.

  Longitudinal Plane
• This means "Odd view", Not horizontal or vertical. Any plane that is not in any of the sagittal, coronal, or transverse planes. What do you call this?
