Body Organization: directional terms, regions, sections, planes, and cavities
August 12-13 2015Slide2
The picture shows a body in anatomical position.
The person is upright, with arms down and palms to the front.
Anatomical PositionSlide3
All directional terms reference position with regards to anatomical position … even if the body in question is in a different position.
Example: The head is superior (above) to the feet, whether you are standing up, laying down, or doing a handstand.
Anatomical PositionSlide4
Important terms not shown on the diagram:
Deep
– more internal
Superficial
– toward / at body surface
Directional Terms
Terms and use explained on page 12 of textbook!
Terms are used to describe
relative position
.
Example: the ribs are
anterior
to the spineSlide5
Using your guided notes, answer the following
The knee is _____________________ to the hip bones.The ears are _________________________ to the nose.
The elbow is on the _________________side of the arm.
Your naval is _______________________ to your arms.
Your thumbs are always _____________ to your fingers.
Your heart is _________________________ to your ribs.
Your shoulders are ________________ to your elbows._

Regional Terms
The body can be divided into two main regions:Axial part – the main axis of our body
Head, neck, trunk
Appendicular part –
the appendagesarms, legsSlide8

Body Planes and Sections
The body may be
sectioned
(cut) along a flat surface called a plane.
The three most common planes are:Sagittal (Median)
plane
(cuts body into left & right)
Frontal (coronal) plane (cuts body into front & back)
Transverse plane
(cross section)
(cuts body into superior &
inferior parts)Slide11

(cut) along a flat surface called a plane.
Misconception alert!
Planes do not have to be in the middleof the body to go by these names.Slide12
Body Planes and Sections
Which plane could be used to separate
the hemispheres of the brain?
sagittal
Which plane could be used to separatethe top and bottom of the kidney?
transverse
Which plane could be used to separate t
The anterior and posterior parts of the
body?frontalSlide13
Body CavitiesSlide14
Body Cavities
In which cavity are the following organs are found:Name both the major and minor divisions.
Spinal cord
Lungs
Brain LiverBladderSmall intestine
Dorsal, vertebral
Ventral, thoracic
Dorsal, cranial
Ventral, abdominal
Ventral, pelvic
Ventral, abdominalSlide15
Practice!Study the direction, regional, sectional, and cavity terms with a partner for 5 minutes.
Then, we will play a game.Slide16
Game (Round 1)Get a partner and 8 small pieces of tape, and label 1-8.
Place the tape on your partner’s body to match the words.First one wins!Slide17
Game (Round 1)

On the anterior side of the body
Distal to the elbow
Posterior side of the hand
On the axial body
On the appendicular bodySlide18
