body, consisting of the head, neck, and trunk, and paired upper limbs and lower legs
-surface anatomy correct answers Regional Anatomy
the examination of structures of the human body that can be seen without a microscope
correct answers gross anatomy
provides information about structures that may be observed or palpated beneath the
skin correct answers surface anatomy
clinical application of surface anatomy correct answers physical examination
-palpation
-observation
-listening correct answers three techniques for examining the body:
study of the body's organ systems that work together to carry out complex functions.
correct answers systemic anatomy
refers to the body postion as if the person were standing upright with the:
-head, eyes, and toes directed forward
-arms adjacent to the sides with the palms facing anteriorly
-lower limbs close together with the feet parallel correct answers anatomical postion
vertical plane passing longitudinally through the body, divides the body into right and left
halves correct answers median plane
vertical planes passing through the body parallel to the median plane correct answers
sagittal plane
vertical planes passing through the body at right angles to the median plane, dividing
the body into anterior and posterior parts correct answers frontal (coronal) planes
horizontal planes passing through the body at right angles to the median and frontal
planes
-dividing the body into superior and inferior parts correct answers transverse plane
,run lengthwise or parallel to the long axis of the body correct answers longitudinal
sections
cross sections, are slices of the body or its parts that are cut at right angles to the
longitudinal axis of the body or of any of its parts correct answers transverse sections
slices of the body or any of its parts that are not cut along the previously listed
anatomical planes correct answers oblique sections
structure that is nearer to the vertex, or top of the head
ex: the heart is ___ to the stomach correct answers superior
structure that is situated nearer the sole of the foot
ex: the stomach is ___________ to the heart correct answers inferior
toward the feet or tail region correct answers caudal
denotes the back surface of the body
ex: the heel is _____ to the toes correct answers posterior (dorsal)
denotes the front surface of the body
ex: the toes are ____ to the ankle correct answers anterior (ventral)
indicates that a structure is nearer to the median plane of the body
ex: the fifth digit (pinky) of the hand is medial to the other digits correct answers medial
structure that is farther away from the median plane
ex: the first digit of the hand (thumb) is lateral to the other digits. correct answers lateral
often used instead of anterior when describing parts of the brain
ex: the frontal lobe of the brain is rostral to the cerebellum correct answers rostral
-usually refers to the superior aspect of any part that protrudes anteriorly from the body
-ex: tongue, nose, penis, or foot
-also describes posterior surface of the hand correct answers dorsum
anterior surface of the hand correct answers palm
inferior aspect or bottom of the foot
-opposite the dorsum correct answers sole
the surface of the hands, feet, and digits of both corresponding to the dorsum correct
answers dorsal surface
the surface of the hand and fingers corresponding to the palm correct answers palmar
surface
, surface of the foot and toes corresponding to the sole correct answers plantar surface
nearer to the head and farther from the median plane correct answers superolateral
on the surface
ex: the muscles of the arm are _______ to its bone correct answers superficial
between a superficial and deep structure
ex: the biceps muscle is ________ between the skin and the humerus correct answers
intermediate
farther from the surface
ex: the humerus is _________ the the arm muscles correct answers deep

ex: the elbow is ____ to the wrist correct answers proximal
farther away from the attachment of a limb
ex: the wrist is ___ to the elbow correct answers distal
something occurring on the same side of the body as another structure correct answers
ipsilateral
occurring on the opposite side of the body relative to another structure
ex: the right hand it _____________ to the left hand correct answers contralateral
sole = inferior foot surface
dorsum = superior foot surface correct answers plantar vs dorsal
palm = anterior hand
dorsum = posterior hand correct answers palmar vs. dorsal

straightening or increasing the angle between the bones or parts of the body
-usually occurs in a posterior direction correct answers extension
flexion at the ankle joint, as occurs when walking uphill correct answers dorsiflexion
moving away from the median plane
ex: when moving an upper limb laterally away from the side of the body correct
answers abduction
moving toward the median plane correct answers adduction
