ANTERIOR VS POSTERIOR
• Anterior refers to the front of the
body
• Posterior refers to the back of the
body

BODY PLANES
• LINE THROUGH THE BODY
AT VARIOUS PARTS TO
SEPARATE THE BODY INTO
SECTIONS

TRANSVERSE PLANE
• ONE OF THREE MAIN
PLANES

TRANSVERSE PLANE
• DIVIDES BODY INTO TOP
AND BOTTOM HALF

SUPERIOR
• BODY PARTS ABOVE OTHER
PARTS

MIDSAGITTAL OR MEDIAN
PLANE
• DIVIDES THE BODY INTO
RIGHT AND LEFT SIDES

MEDIAL
• BODY PARTS CLOSE TO
MIDLINE OR PLANE

© 2009 Delmar, Cengage Learning
LATERAL
• BODY PARTS AWAY FROM
THE MIDLINE OR PLANE

VENTRAL OR ANTERIOR
• BODY PARTS IN FRONT OF THE BODY
• ANTERIOR IS THE TERM FOR DIRECTION
• VENTRAL IS THE TERM FOR MOVEMENT
© 2009 Delmar, Cengage Learning
DORSAL OR POSTERIOR
• BODY PARTS IN BACK OF THE BODY
• POSTERIOR IS THE TERM OF DIRECTION
• DORSAL IS THE TERM OF MOVEMENT
© 2009 Delmar, Cengage Learning
PROXIMAL
• BODY PARTS CLOSE TO THE POINT O R
REFERENCE
• EXAMPLE MAIN TRUNK OF THE BODY IS A
POINT OF REFERENCE TO THE ARMS AND
LEGS
• EXAMPLE : THE NOSE IS PROXIMAL TO
THE SHOULDER

DISTAL
• BODY PARTS AWAY FROM THE POINT OF
REFERENCE
• EXAMPLE: TOES ARE DISTAL TO THE
THIGH

Cytology
• The study of the formation, structure, and
function of cells, including:
– Chromosomes
– DNA
– Genetics

Histology
• The study of tissues, which are composed
of cells that join together to perform
specific functions, including:
–
–
–
–
Nervous Tissue
Epithelial Tissues
Connective Tissues
Muscle Tissue

Glands
• Specialized cells that secrete material used
elsewhere in the body, including:
– Exocrine Glands
– Endocrine Glands
© 2009 Delmar, Cengage Learning
Organ and Body Systems
• Body parts are organized into systems
according to function.
• Examples:
– Skeletal System
– Muscular System
– Cardiovascular System
© 2009 Delmar, Cengage Learning
Pathology
• The study of structural and functional
changes caused by disease.
© 2009 Delmar, Cengage Learning
CHROMOSOMES
• The nucleus of each cell contains 46
chromosomes, arranged in 23 pairs
• Sex cells are known as gametes
