The Language of Anatomy

Score:__________________
Name:________________________________________________

I. Surface Anatomy
Match each of the following descriptions with a key term and write the term in front of the
description.

acromial cervical patellar scapular


brachial crural popliteal vertebral
carpal digital

1. lower portion of the


lower limb 6. anterior aspect of knee
2. referring to the fingers 7. referring to the arm
3. posterior aspect of the
knee 8. your backbone, or spine
4. shoulder blade 9. point of the shoulder
5. wrist area 10. referring to the neck

II. A. Body Orientation, Direction, Planes, and Sections


Several incomplete statements are listed below. Correctly complete each statement by
choosing the appropriate anatomical term from the key. Write the key terms on the
correspondingly numbered blanks below. Some terms may be used more than once.

anterior inferior posterior superior


distal lateral proximal transvers
frontal medial sagittal

In the anatomical position, the umbilicus and knees are on the (1) __________________body surface, the
calves 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 a
(15) __________________ section; but if the brain is cut so that anterior and posterior portions result, the
section is a (16) __________________ section. You are told to cut a dissection animal along two planes so
that the lungs are observable in both sections. The body plane that would not meet these criteria is (17)

Name of a structure is directional terms to name of the second structure


forearm is proximal to hand

head is superior to (1)
(2) is inferior to tibia
breast is anterior to (3)
(4) is distal to upper arm
brain is medial to (5)
(6) is lateral to trunk

1. A surgeon is preparing to make an incision in the lower abdomen for an appendectomy. Identify
the abdominal region where the incision will likely be made, and describe its position relative to
the umbilical region.

this region?

organ.
