1. Introduction to Anatomy & Physiology

Terms that apply to the backside of the body in the anatomical position include:

a. Ventral; anterior

b. Back; rear

c. Posterior; dorsal

d. Medial; lateral

In (a)–(e), a directional term [e.g., distal in (a)] is followed by terms indicating different body structures or locations (e.g., the elbow/wrist). In each case, choose the structure or organ that matches the given directional term.

a. Distal: the elbow/the wrist

b. Lateral: the hip bone/the umbilicus

c. Superior: the nose/the chin

d. Anterior: the toes/the heel

e. Superficial: the scalp/the skull

Define plane and section.

Provide the anatomical term that correctly names each of the following body regions:

Arm

Thigh

Chest

Fingers and toes

Anterior aspect of the knee

At the clinic, Harry was told that blood would be drawn from his antecubital region. What body part was Harry asked to hold out? Later, the nurse came in and gave Harry a shot of penicillin in the area just distal to his acromial region. Did Harry take off his shirt or drop his pants to receive the injection? Before Harry left, the nurse noticed that Harry had a nasty bruise on his gluteal region. What part of his body was black and blue?
