Study Notes

  • The body is divided into right and left sections by the sagittal plane.

  • The coronal plane divides the body into anterior and posterior sections.

  • The transverse plane divides the body into superior and inferior sections.

  • The body is positioned according to its anatomical position (internal and external) and the direction of its movement (prone, rostral, caudal).

  • Miscellaneous terms such as proximal and distal are used to describe an area's location relative to a point of reference.

  • The cephalic and ventral terms are used interchangeably to describe an area's orientation towards the head or the chest.

  • The body is composed of many different structures that move in specific ways to provide functionality.

  • The body's two main cavities are the dorsal and the ventral body cavities.

  • The dorsal body cavity protects the brain and the vertebral cavity protects the spinal cord.

  • The ventral body cavity houses the internal organs ( viscera ).

  • The thoracic and the abdominal cavities each have two subdivisions.

  • The pericardium is a sac that surrounds the heart.

  • The body has nine regions delineated by four planes: the righthypochondriacregion, epigastricregion, rightlumbarregion, umbilicalregion, lefthypochondriacregion, leftlumbarregion, and right iliac (inguinal)region.

  • The abdominopelvic regions include the oral and digestive cavities, the nasal cavity, the upper respiratory tract, the lower respiratory tract, the orbital cavities, the middle ear cavities, and the synovial cavities.

  • The levels of structural organization in the body include chemical, cellular, tissue, group of similar cells, organ, and organismal levels.

  • The levels of structural organization in the body include levels of organization at the level of atoms and molecules, levels of organization at the level of cells, levels of organization at the level of tissues, and levels of organization at the level of organs.
