2.  Anatomical Position  Location Terminology  Anterior/Posterior  Medial/Lateral  Superior/Inferior and Proximal/Distal  Superficial/Deep  Planes of the body  Motion of the human body within planes.

4.  -Always reference it by going back to anatomical position.  These positions are named by considering how they relate to other body parts.  Example: The Sternum is anterior to the spine.  This helps to prevent confusion and lay terminology. It is particularly important when considering exercise performance.

5.  Terms always come in Pairs: These terms are the opposite of one another.  Ex: anterior vs posterior  The terms always relate to the direction of the human body.  Terminology is a way of putting points on a the map of the Human Body.

6.  This is a person standing erect, facing forward with their arms to their sides.  In anatomical position the palms are facing forward.

7. 1.anterior-means farther to the front. 2.2. Posterior-means farther to the back. (anterior and posterior can be used for the entire body) Examples: The sternum is anterior to the spine. The spine is posterior to the sternum. 3.Ventral-means anterior 4.Dorsal essentially means posterior. 5. Volar is occasionally used in place of anterior when referring to the hand region.

9.  Medial-This means closer to the line that divides the body into left and right halves.  Lateral- farther from the imaginary line that divides the body into right and left halves.  Lateral and Medial can be used to describe the entire body. Example: The sternum is medial to the humerous. The humerous is lateral to the sternum.

10.  -When talking about the hand we discuss the ulnar side: This means the side closer to the Ulna. The radial side is the one closer to the radius.  We use Tibial and Fibial when  referring to the leg.

11.  Superior means above another body part.  Inferior means below another body part.  Proximal means closer to the axial body.  Distal means farther from the axial body. example: The arm is proximal to the forearm. The forearm is distal to the arm.

13.  1. Find a partner  2. You are required to name and describe body parts to your partner.(using terms we have learned) Example: Head is superior to the shoulders.  3. Each partner needs to do a minimum of 10 body parts.  4. Write your examples and descriptions down to turn in.

14.  Describe to me the location of the head in relation to the neck.  What is the position of the pinky in relation to the thumb?  What is the relation of the patella to the calf?
