    Summary Introduction

    Introduction:

    Anatomy is related to body structure and function. It includes the study of cells, tissue, bones skeletal system, and organ system. It is distinct from physiology. It is the study of the function of the whole body and parts of the body. It focuses on the mechanisms and metabolic processes that occur in different organs of the body.

    Answer to Problem 1PL

    Correct answer:

    The correct answer is option (c) Anatomical position.

    Explanation of Solution

    Explanation/justification for the correct answer:

    Option (c). Anatomical position. In the anatomical position, the muscles are in minimum tension. It is erect or standing up position in humans. It is used as an initial point for physiological and anatomical descriptions and communications of the body. So, the correct answer is option (c).

    Explanation for incorrect answer:

    Option (a). The person is lying down. The lying position of a person is termed as supine and prone in which their body is supported by the surface underneath. It does not support the basis for communication, whereas it simply means the muscles of the body is in resting position. So, this is an incorrect option.

    Option (b). Relative positions. The position defined concerning another position. Anatomical position describes the relative positions of body parts. The relative positions are ventral, dorsal, cranial, caudal and superficial positions. Also, it does involve physiological functioning. So, this is an incorrect answer.

    Option (d). The person is sleeping. It is a state of reduced awareness and response. Sleeping is also associated with reduced movement in the human body. It is not a part of anatomical communication. So, this is an incorrect answer.

    Preoperative Diagnosis: Torn medial meniscus, left knee Postoperative Diagnosis: Combination horizontal cleavage tear/flap tear, posterior horn, medial meniscus, left knee. Operation: Arthroscopic subtotal medial meniscectomy, left knee Anesthetic: General endotracheal Description of Procedure: The patient was placed on the operating table in the supine position and general endotracheal anesthesia was administered. After an adequate level of anesthesia was achieved, the patient's left lower extremity was prepped with Betadine scrubbing solution, then draped in a sterile manner. Several sites were then infiltrated with 1% Xylocaine solution with Epinephrine to help control bleeding from stab wounds to be made at these sites. These stab wounds were made anterolaterally at the level of the superior pole of the patella for insertion of an irrigation catheter into the suprapatellar pouch area, anterolaterally at the level of the joint line for insertion of the scope and anteromedially at…
