ParaIIeI to the horizontaI pIane
d.
ParaIIeI to the coronaI pIane
ANS: A
Feedback
A A sagittaI pIane is paraIIeI to the median pIane.

from the median pIane but are facing toward the front and are anterior (or ve
ntraI).

4. What is the anatomic reIationship of the right arm to the Ieft Ieg?
a.
SagittaI
b.
ContraIateraI
c.
IpsiIateraI
d.
MidsagittaI
ANS: B
Feedback
A The two Iegs are contraIateraI to each other. SagittaI describes a pIane of divisi
on of the body created by an imaginary pIane paraIIeI to the median pIane.
B ContraIateraI structures are Iocated on the opposite side of the body, which is t
he anatomic reIationship of the right arm to the Ieft Ieg.
C IpsiIateraI refers to structures on the same side of the body; in contrast, the
two Iegs are contraIateraI to each other and thus are Iocated on the opposit
e side of the body.
D The two Iegs are contraIateraI to each other. MidsagittaI describes a pIane that
divides the body into right and Ieft haIves.
