8. Directional Terms

9. Superior (su-pir ́-e-uhr)—More toward the head Example: The knee is superior to the ankle. Inferior (in-fir ́-e-uhr)—Farther from the head Example: The wrist is inferior to the elbow. Anterior (an-tir ́-e-uhr)—More toward the front of the body Example: The nose is anterior to the ears. Posterior (paw-stir ́-e-uhr)—More toward the backside of the body Example: The heel is posterior to the toes.

11. Proximal (prawk ́-suh-muhl)—Nearer to a point of reference Example: The neck is proximal to the head as compared to the stomach. Distal (dis ́-tuhl)—Farther from a point of reference Example: The elbow is distal to the hand as compared to the wrist. Medial (med ́-e-uhl)—Closer to the midline of the body Example: The eyes are medial as compared to the ears. Lateral (lat ́-uh-ruhl)—Farther from the midline of the body Example: The hips are lateral as compared to the navel.

12. Deep (dep ́)—Away from the surface Example: The kidneys are deep. Superficial (su-puhr-fish ́-uhl)—Near the surface Example: A rash of the skin is superficial. Central (sen ́-truhl)—At or near the middle Example: The nose is central on the face. Peripheral (puh-rif ́-uh-ruhl)—At or near the edge Example: The toes are peripheral to the foot.

13. Parietal (puh-ri ́-uht-uhl)—At the wall of a body cavity Example: The mucosa that line most body cavities are parietal. Visceral (vis ́-uh-ruhl)—Within a body cavity Example: Most internal organs are visceral.

19. Cephalic (suh-fal ́-ik)—Referring to the head ✔ Note: Another term for cephalic is cranial (kra ́-ne-uhl). 2. Caudal (kawd ́-uhl)—Referring to the tail or tail end of a structure 3. Palmar (pal ́-muhr)—Referring to the palm of the hand 4. Plantar (plant ́-uhr)—Referring to the sole of the foot

20. Body Positions Erect: standing or upright Supine: lying down with face up Prone: lying down on stomach

22. Thoracic cavity is subdivided into pleural cavities- each houses a lung the mediastinum, contains the pericardial cavity, and surrounds the remaining thoracic organs pericardial cavity encloses the heart
