Week 2 Anatomy

QuestionAnswer
The Study of the structure/ morphology of the human body and its part. Derived from Greek word meaning "a cutting up" Anatomy
It is the study of the macroscopic structure and function of the body as it relates to the practice of medicine and other health sciences. Clinical Anatomy
Gross Anatomy, Histology, Radiographic Anatomy, Surface Anatomy, Systemic Anatomy and Regional Anatomy, Cytology, Developmental anatomy, Embryology, Pathological anatomy Different Fields/ Subdivisions of Anatomy
It is the standard reference position of the body used to describe the location of structures. Anatomical Position
Body upright, Standing erect facing the observer, Head and Eyes facing forward, upper limbs at the side, palms facing forward, Feet are flat on the floor and forward Anatomical Position
Coronal (Frontal) Plane, Sagittal Plane - Midsagittal and Parasagittal, and Transverse (Horizontal) Plane, Oblique Anatomical Planes/ Body Sections
Oriented vertically and divide the body into anterior and posterior parts. Coronal (Frontal) Plane
Oriented vertically, but are at right angles to the coronal planes and divide the body into right and left parts. The plane that passes through the center of the body dividing it into equal right and left halves is termed the median sagittal plane. Sagittal Plane
