Select the best answer or answers from the choices given: In (a)–(e), a directional term [e.g., distal in (a)] is followed by terms indicating different body structures or locations (e.g., the elbow/the wrist). In each case, choose the structure or organ that matches the given directional term. (a) distal: the elbow/the wrist (b) lateral: the hip bone/the umbilicus (c) superior: the nose/the chin (d) anterior: the toes/the heel (e) superficial: the scalp/the skull

- The idea that the study of the human body can be most thoroughly understood through the principles of: complementarity of structure and function, hierarchy of structural organization, and homeostasis is the unifying theme of anatomy and physiology. In your own words, explain how these ideas tie together the anatomy and physiology disciplines. NOTE: there is not really a wrong answer here as long as you are thoughtful, nor do you need to write for pages and pages. Address each of the three areas with a brief definition in your own words, and then give a few sentences on how they are tied together.arrow_forwardIn each of the following examples, choose the term that correctly describes the human body according to anatomical position.a. In the anatomical position, the palms are forward or backward.b. The liver is superior or inferior to the diaphragm.c. The hand is proximal or distal to the elbow.d. The shoulder blade is on the anterior or posterior part of the body.e. Cranial refers to the head or tail end of the body.f. The coronal plane divides the body into front and back or right and left sections. g. The arms are located on the medial or lateral side of the body. h. The transverse plane divides the body into superior and inferior or anterior and posterior parts.arrow_forwardWe use directional terms to describe the relationship between different body parts. For example, in anatomic position, the thumb is and the pinkie finger is anterior, posterior superior, inferior medial, lateral lateral, medialarrow_forward
- Discuss the following anatomical terms used for the different parts of the body to describe their relations with one another. Anterior and Posterior Superior and Inferior Medial and Lateral Superficial and Deep Proximal and Distalarrow_forwardLabel the 3 planes on the body image as frontal, transverse, and sagittal. **Which plane do Figures 5 & 6 represent? **Place the numbers 1 & 2 on the image, #1 should be superior to #2 **Place the numbers 3 & 4 on the image, #3 should be medial to #4 **Place the numbers 5 & 6 on the image, #5 should be anterior to #6arrow_forwardMark the following statements as true or false. If a statement is false, correct it to make a true statement. a. Histology is the division of microscopic anatomy that studies the cellular level of organization. b. All living organisms are composed of one or more cells. c. Living organisms react to changes in their environment known as stimuli. d. The anatomical position features the person facing forward, feet shoulder width apart, and palms facing posteriorlyarrow_forward

Name one or two things that a person with aphasia might have difficulty with in relation, to form, content, and use. ( treat them separately, don't answer all three together)arrow_forwardDraw and label an anterior view of the human body with the thoracic and abdominopelvic cavities open with major organs drawn in. Hint: you will want to section the drawing sagittally and have the left (anatomical left) half of the cavities showing deeper organs only- ie on the left side show the kidney, ureter, spleen, pancreas, internal reproductive organs, bladder, etc and the right (anatomical) half showing the more superficial organs ie lungs, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, etc. These are only examples of organs, your drawing should be much more complete. Color code the organs by organ system. Please help I need to see drawing examples fully I keep drawing and throwing the paper awayarrow_forward
- Name a structure that is located cranial to the abdominal cavity, caudal to the neck, and dorsal to the sternum. Mental refers to what part of the body? If you sleep on your stomach, you are sleeping in a _____________________ position; whereas if you sleep on your back, you are sleeping in a _____________________ position. If you are asked to take a buccal swab, which cavity would you swab? An injury to the ear would be described as________________________________. If a patient has gotten into a fight and comes into the ER with a fracture to his or her cheekbone, how would you describe that fracture using the regions of the face? The nose is located ________________ and ________________ to the ears. The __________________ cavity encases the brain. The __________________ cavity encases the lungs.arrow_forwardHow do I understand the basics of anatomy? I am having difficulties understanding the superior and inferior that involve "posterior to anterior" or "lateral to media" or proximal to distal, and switching them. Can you please help me get knowledge about itarrow_forwardUsing the boxes, break down each word in to bases, combining forms, prefixes, or suffixes.
