| Median | Middle |
| Anterior/cephalic | Toward the head |
| Posterior | Toward hind end |
| Superficial | On or near the surface |
| Deep | Some distance below the surface |
| Sagittal | Relating to midplane, which bisects left and right sides |
| Transverse | Plane seperating ant. and post. |
| Horizontal | Plane separating dorsal and ventral |
| Proximal | Near to the point of reference |
| Distal | Far from point of reference |
| Caudal | Toward tale end |
| Pectoral | Relating to chest and shoulder region |
| Pelvic | Relating to hip region |
| Dermal | Relating to skin |
| Longitudinal | Lengthwise |
| Right & Left | Specimens right and left, not yours |

| What are the three parts of the brain stem | pons, mid brain and medulla |
| Pons | Links medulla and thalamus |
| Medulla | Continuation of spinal chord, forms lowest part of brain stem. Contains control center for heart and lungs |
| Cerebellum | Back of skull in vertebrates, coordinate and regulate muscular activity |
| Pituitary gland | Behind the bridge of your nose, attached to base of your brain. Controls growth and development and functioning of other glands |

| Meninges | Protects nervous system, line the skull and vertebral canal and enclose the brain and spinal chord |
| Olfactory bulb | Neural structure of vertebrate involved in olfaction, the sense of smell |
| Optic nerve | Second pair of cranial nerves, transmitting impulses to brain from retina at the back of the eye |
| Cerebrum | responsible for coordination of voluntary activity in body, integrates complex sensory and neural functions |
| Mid brain | Associated with vision/hear, sleep/awake, temp., vision and hearing |
