Coronal plane

Oblique plane

Previous problemNext problem

Verified step by step guidance

Understand the anatomical planes: The transverse plane divides the body into superior (upper) and inferior (lower) parts, the sagittal plane divides the body into left and right parts, the coronal plane divides the body into anterior (front) and posterior (back) parts, and the oblique plane cuts at an angle.

Identify the location and orientation of the nasal septum: The nasal septum is a vertical structure that separates the left and right nasal cavities.

Match the orientation of the nasal septum to the anatomical planes: Since the nasal septum divides the left and right sides of the nasal cavity, it aligns with the sagittal plane.

Eliminate incorrect options: The transverse plane does not divide left and right, the coronal plane divides front and back, and the oblique plane is angled, none of which match the nasal septum's orientation.

Conclude that the nasal septum occupies the sagittal plane based on its anatomical position and function.
