1.5 Anatomical Terminology
2.1 Atoms, Ions, and Molecules
Write complete sentences correctly using each of the 14 anatomical terms on the bottom 2/3 of pg. 18

2. Anatomical Terminology
Anatomical Position – standing erect, facing forward, upper limbs at the sides, palms facing forward
Palms out
Draw a small picture to remind you next to your definition

3. Superior vs. Inferior
Superior: Top. Or part that is above another part; closer to the head
Ex: The Kidneys are superior to the bladder
Inferior: Bottom. Or part that is below another part; toward the feet
Ex: The bladder is inferior to the kidneys

4. Anterior vs. Posterior Anterior: Front
Ex: The liver is anterior to the stomach
Posterior: Back
Ex: The stomach is posterior to the liver

5. Medial vs. Lateral
Medial: Imaginary midline (middle) dividing the body into equal right and left halves. Anything “toward the middle”.
Ex: The chest is medial to the arms
Lateral: Side. Toward the right or left side of the midline.
Ex: The arms are lateral to the chest

6. Types of Lateral Ipsilateral: Same side
Ex: The appendix is ipsilateral to the gallbladder
Contralateral: Opposite side
Ex: The gallbladder is contralateral to the stomach

7. Intermediate
Intermediate: Being between or in the middle of two structures
Ex: The heart is intermediate to the lungs

8. Proximal vs. Distal
Proximal: Closer to the trunk of the body than another part
Ex: The elbow is proximal to the wrist = The elbow is closer to the trunk than the wrist is
Trunk
Distal: Farther from the trunk of the body than another part.
Ex: The fingers are distal to the wrist = The fingers are farther from the trunk than the wrist

9. Superficial vs. Peripheral
Superficial: toward or on the surface of the body (shallow)
Ex: The epidermis is superficial to the dermis
Deep: Describes the parts that are more deep
Ex: The dermis is deep to the epidermis

10. Body Sections
In What ways can we cut a body or organ?

12. Sagittal: Lengthwise cut that divides the body into unequal right and left portions
Midsagittal: cut that divides the body into equal right and left portions

13. Transverse: Horizontal cut
Transverse: Horizontal cut. Divides the body into superior (top) and inferior (bottom) portions

14. Coronal: Refers to a section that divides the body into anterior (front) and posterior (back) portions
