Saggital - ANS_divides body into left and right lenghtwise (front to back)
frontal (coronal) plane - ANS_divides the body into anterior and posterior parts (side to side)
Proximal - ANS_towards or nearest the trunk of the body, nearest the point of origin of one of its parts.
Distal - ANS_Away from or farthest from the trunk or the point of origin of a body part
transverse plane - ANS_horizontal division of the body into upper and lower portions
4 different abdominopelvic quadrants - ANS_right upper quadrant (RUQ, right superior), Right Lower
