examination of the patient’s eyes?
v v v v v
a. Anterior
b. Posterior

d. Lateral
ANS: A v
Feedback
A The patient’s eyes are visualized on the anterior surface of the patient’s body.

a. Parallel to the median plane v v v v
b. Parallel to the frontal plane v v v v
c. Parallel to the horizontal plane v v v v
d. Parallel to the coronal plane v v v v

Feedback
A A sagittal plane is parallel to the median plane.
v v v v v v v v
B A sagittal plane is NOT parallel to the frontal plane but perpendicular.
v v v v v v v v v v v
C A horizontal plane is perpendicular to the median plane. A sagittal plane is parallel to
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
the median plane. Thus a horizontal plane is perpendicular to a
v v v v v v v v v v v
sagittal plane. v
D A sagittal plane is NOT parallel to the coronal plane but perpendicular.

, 3. When a patient is in anatomic position, what is the surface of the palms of the hand
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
considered?
v
a. Anterior
b. Lateral
c. Medial
d. Posterior
ANS: A v
Feedback
A The palms of the hands in anatomic position are facing toward the front and are anterior
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
(or ventral).
v v
B The palms of the hands in anatomic position are NOT facing lateral or away from the
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
median plane but are facing toward the front and are anterior (or ventral).
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
C The palms of the hands in anatomic position are NOT facing medial or toward the
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
median plane but are facing toward the front and are anterior (or ventral).
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
D The palms of the hands in anatomic position are NOT facing toward the posterior or

4. What is the anatomic relationship of the right arm to the left leg?
v v v v v v v v v v v v
a. Sagittal .
b. Contralateral
c. Ipsilateral
d. Midsagittal
ANS: B v
Feedback
A The two legs are contralateral to each other. Sagittal describes a plane of division of the
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
body created by an imaginary plane parallel to the median plane.
v v v v v v v v v v v
B Contralateral structures are located on the opposite side of the body, which is the v v v v v v v v v v v v v
anatomic relationship of the right arm to the left leg.
v v v v v v v v v v
C Ipsilateral refers to structures on the same side of the body; in contrast, the two legs are
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
contralateral to each other and thus are located on the opposite side of
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
the body. v
D The two legs are contralateral to each other. Midsagittal describes a plane that divides
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
the body into right and left halves.
