The Language of Anatomy
Surface Anatomy
1. Match each of the following descriptions with a key equivalent, and record the key letter or term in front of the description.
Key: a. buccal c. cephalic e. patellar b. calcaneal d. digital f. scapular
cheek 4. anterior aspect of knee
pertaining to the fingers 5. heel of foot
shoulder blade region 6. pertaining to the head
2. Indicate the following body areas on the accompanying diagram by placing the correct key letter at the end of each line.
Key:
a. abdominal b. antecubital c. axillary d. brachial e. cervical f. crural g. femoral h. fibular i. gluteal j. inguinal k. lumbar l. occipital m. oral n. popliteal o. pubic p. sural q. thoracic r. umbilical
3. Classify each of the terms in the key of question 2 above into one of the large body regions indicated below. Insert the ap- propriate key letters on the answer blanks.

Body Orientation, Direction, Planes, and Sections
4. Describe completely the standard human anatomical position.
5. Define section:
6. Several incomplete statements are listed below. Correctly complete each statement by choosing the appropriate anatomical term from the key. Record the key letters and/or terms on the correspondingly numbered blanks below.
Key: a. anterior d. inferior g. posterior j. superior b. distal e. lateral h. proximal k. transverse c. frontal f. medial i. sagittal
In the anatomical position, the face and palms are on the 1 body surface; the buttocks and shoulder blades are on the 2 body surface; and the top of the head is the most 3 part of the body. The ears are 4 and 5 to the shoulders and 6 to the nose. The heart is 7 to the vertebral column (spine) and 8 to the lungs. The elbow is 9 to the fingers but 10 to the shoulder. The abdominopelvic cavity is 11 to the thoracic cavity and 12 to the spinal cavity. In humans, the dorsal surface can also be called the 13 surface; however, in quadruped animals, the dorsal surface is the 14 surface. If an incision cuts the heart into right and left parts, the section is a 15 section; but if the heart is cut so that su- perior and inferior portions result, the section is a 16 section. You are told to cut a dissection animal along two planes so that the kidneys are observable in both sections. The two sections that meet this requirement are the 17 and 18 sections. A section that demonstrates the continuity between the spinal and cranial cavities is a 19 section.

7. Correctly identify each of the body planes by inserting the appropriate term for each on the answer line below the drawing.
(a) (b) (c)
Standing erect, feet together, head and toes pointed
forward, arms hanging at sides with palms forward.
A cut made along a body plane.
a; anterior f; medial j; superior
g; posterior h; proximal i; sagittal
j; superior b; distal k; transverse
f; medial d; inferior c; frontal
j; superior a; anterior k; transverse
e; lateral g; posterior i; sagittal
a; anterior
median (mid-sagittal) plane frontal plane transverse plane
12. Which organ system would not be represented in any of the body cavities?
13. What are the bony landmarks of the abdominopelvic cavity?
14. Which body cavity affords the least protection to its internal structures?
15. What is the function of the serous membranes of the body?
16. A nurse informs you that she is about to take blood from the antecubital region. What portion of your body should you pre-
sent to her?
17. The mouth, or oral cavity, and its extension, which stretches through the body to the anus, is not listed as an internal body
cavity. Why is this so?
18. Using the key choices, identify the small body cavities described below.
Key: a. middle ear cavity c. oral cavity e. synovial cavity b. nasal cavity d. orbital cavity
holds the eyes in an anterior-facing position
contains the tongue
lines a joint cavity
houses three tiny bones involved in hearing
contained within the nose
19. On the incomplete flow chart provided below:
- Fill in the cavity names as appropriate to each box.
- Then, using either the box numbers or the name of the cavity, identify the descriptions on the following page. (Some may require more than one choice.)
Skeletal, muscular, integumentary
Dorsally, the vertebral column; laterally and anteriorly,
the pelvis
Abdominal
The serous membranes produce a lubricating fluid that reduces
friction as organs slide across one another or against the cavity walls during their functioning.
Your arm (the anterior surface of the elbow joint).
The cavity (lumen) of this digestive tube is continuous with the external environment.
