Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The midsagittal plane is the only plane that cuts directly through the midline of the brain, severing all the tracts connecting the left and right cerebral hemispheres. The horizontal and axial planes are parallel to the ground and would not completely sever the tracts, while the coronal plane would only cut through a portion of the tracts, leaving some connections intact.
