human body? system, and organism.
What are the regions of the body? The regions of the body include the head, neck, trunk, upper limbs, and lower
limbs.
What are directional terms in anatomy? Directional terms describe the position of structures relative to other structures,
such as anterior (front), posterior (back), superior (above), and inferior (below).
What are the planes of the body? The planes of the body include the sagittal plane (divides left and right), frontal
plane (divides anterior and posterior), and transverse plane (divides superior and
inferior).
What are the abdominal regions? The abdominal regions are divided into nine areas: right hypochondriac,
epigastric, left hypochondriac, right lumbar, umbilical, left lumbar, right iliac,
hypogastric, and left iliac.
What are the body cavities? The body cavities include the cranial cavity, thoracic cavity, abdominal cavity, and
pelvic cavity.
What are serous membranes? Serous membranes are thin layers of tissue that line body cavities and cover
organs, producing serous fluid to reduce friction.
