2. Which Of The Following Is CORRECT Concerning The Sagittal Plane Of The Body?
a. Parallel To The Median Plane
b. Parallel To The Frontal Plane
c. Parallel To The Horizontal Plane
d. Parallel To The Coronal Plane
ANSWER: A
Feedback
A A Sagittal Plane Is Parallel To The Median Plane.
B A Sagittal Plane Is NOT Parallel To The Frontal Plane But Perpendicular.
C A Horizontal Plane Is Perpendicular To The Median Plane. A Sagittal
Plane Is Parallel To The Median Plane. Thus A Horizontal Plane Is
Perpendicular To A Sagittal Plane.
D A Sagittal Plane Is NOT Parallel To The Coronal Plane But Perpendicular.

a. Sagittal
b. Contralateral
c. Ipsilateral
d. Midsagittal
ANSWER: B
Feedback
A The Two Legs Are Contralateral To Each Other. Sagittal Describes A
Plane Of Division Of The Body Created By An Imaginary Plane Parallel To
The Median Plane.
B Contralateral Structures Are Located On The Opposite Side Of The Body,
Which Is The Anatomic Relationship Of The Right Arm To The Left Leg.
C Ipsilateral Refers To Structures On The Same Side Of The Body; In
Contrast, The Two Legs Are Contralateral To Each Other And Thus Are
Located On The Opposite Side Of The Body.
D The Two Legs Are Contralateral To Each Other. Midsagittal Describes A
Plane That Divides The Body Into Right And Left Halves.

d. Posterior
ANSWER: A
Feedback
A The Palms Of The Hands In Anatomic Position Are Facing Toward The
Front And Are Anterior (Or Ventral).
B The Palms Of The Hands In Anatomic Position Are NOT Facing Lateral Or
Away
From The Median Plane But Are Facing Toward The Front And Are
Anterior (Or Ventral).
C The Palms Of The Hands In Anatomic Position Are NOT Facing Medial Or
Toward The Median Plane But Are Facing Toward The Front And Are
Anterior (Or Ventral).
