Body Orientation, Direction, Planes, and Sections

This document provides information about surface anatomy terms and anatomical orientation. It includes: 1) A matching exercise that pairs surface anatomy terms like brachial, deltoid, and patellar with their definitions. 2) An incomplete statement completion exercise about anatomical position, directional terms, and body surfaces that is completed using terms like anterior, posterior, superior, and medial. 3) A question about exposing the lateral femoral region in preparation for a shot.

Surface Anatomy

1. Match each of the following descriptions with a key term, and record the term in front of the description.
Key: brachial carpal deltoid patellar buccal cervical digital scapular

Buccal 1. cheek Patellar 5. anterior aspect of knee


Digital 2. referring to the fingers Brachial 6. referring to the arm
Scapular 3. shoulder blade region Deltoid 7. curve of shoulder
Carpal 4. wrist area Cervical 8. referring to the neck

Body Orientation, Direction, Planes, and Sections


2. Several incomplete statements are listed below. Correctly complete each statement by choosing the
appropriate anatomical term from the key. Record the key terms on the correspondingly numbered
blanks below.

Key: anterior inferior posterior superior distal lateral proximal transverse


frontal medial sagittal

In the anatomical position, the umbilicus and knees are on the 1 body surface; the buttocks and
shoulder blades are on the 2 body surface; and the soles of the feet are the most 3 part of the
body. The ears are 4 and 5 to the shoulders and 6 to the nose. The breastbone is 7 to the
vertebral column (spine) and 8 to the shoulders. The elbow is 9 to the shoulder but 10 to the
fingers. The thoracic cavity is 11 to the abdominopelvic cavity and 12 to the spinal cavity. In humans,
the ventral surface can also be called the 13 surface; however, in quadruped animals, the ventral
surface is the 14 surface.
If an incision cuts the brain into superior and inferior parts, the section is cut a dissection animal along
two planes so that the lungs are observable in both sections. The two sections that meet this
requirement are the 17 and 18 sections.

1. Anterior 7. Anterior 13. Anterior

2. Posterior 8. Medial 14. Inferior

3. Inferior 9. Distal 15. Transverse

4. Medial 10. Proximal 16. Frontal

5. Superior 11. Superior 17. Transverse

6. Lateral 12. Anterior 18. Frontal

3. A nurse informs you that she is about to give you a shot in the lateral femoral region. What portion of
your body should you uncover?

.

1. What are the bony landmarks of the abdominopelvic cavity? Spine, Rib cage and Pelvis
.
