| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Transverse Plane | Straight through the middle (cuts through superior and inferior) |
| Anterior | Front; in front of |
| Epidermis | Outermost layer, provides waterproof barrier |
| PH | "The power of hydrogen," a numerical scale of 0-14 (0-6=acidic, 7=neutral, 8-14=alkaline) |
| Sagital Plane | Mid-line (left and right sections) |
| Dermis | Contains connective tissue, hair follicles, and sweat glands |
| Coronal Plane | Perpendicular to sagital plane (front and back sections) |
| H+ ions decrease | pH goes up and the solution becomes more alkaline |
| Hypodermis | Has protective functions, tough connective tissue, adipose tissue, fat, and insulator |
| H+ ions increase | pH goes down and the solution becomes more acidic |
| pH of 8-14 | Less hydrogen ions and more hydroxide ions |
| pH of 0-6 | More hydrogen ions and less hydroxide ions |
| pH of 7 | Hydrogen ions and Hydroxide ions are equal |
