1
The Body as a Whole and Orientation
 
Learning Goal:   To illustrate the anatomical position and construct the diagram of
regions of the body and identify the underlying organs.
 
Level of Structural Organization
1. Illustrate the increasingly larger, as organized by body into successively
complex structure

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Body Orientation, Direction, Planes, and Sections
 
2.  Correctly identify by choosing the appropriate anatomical terms to complete the
statements listed below.
           
         In the anatomical position, the umbilicus and knees are on the __1__ body
surface; the calves and shoulder blades are on the __2__ body surface; and the
soles of the feet are the most __3__ part of the body. The ears are __4__ and __5__
to the shoulders and __6__ to the nose. The breastbone is __7__ to the vertebral
column (spine) and __8__ to the shoulders. The elbow is __9__to the shoulder but
__10__ to the fingers. The thoracic cavity is __11__ to the abdominopelvic cavity and
__12__ to the spinal cavity. In humans, the ventral surface can also be called the
__13__ surface; however, in quadruped animals, the ventral surface is the __14__
surface.
        
If an incision cuts the brain into superior and inferior parts, the section is a
__15__ section; but if the brain is cut so that anterior and posterior portion result, the
section is a __16__ section. You are told to cut a dissection animal along two planes
so that the lungs are observable in both sections. The two sections that meet this
requirement are the __17__  and __18__ sections.
