of its parts
distal - away from or farthest from the trunk or the point of origin of a body part
superficial - nearer the surface
deep - farther away from the body surface
sagittal plane - a sagittal cut or sections runs along a lengthwise plane running from
front to back. it divides the body or any of its parts into left and right sides
midsagittal plane - divides the body into two equal halves vertically
frontal (coronal) plane - lengthwise plane running from side to side; divides the body or

organs - a group of several different kinds of tissues arranged in ways that allow them to
act as a unit to perform a special function
systems - an organization of varying numbers and kinds of organs that can work
together to perform complex functions for the body
organism - organization of all systems together, forming a whole body
microbiome - set of interacting communities of bacteria and other microorganisms that
