Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The planes of the body are the median or sagittal plane (which divides the body into left and right halves), the frontal or coronal plane (which divides the body into front and back halves), and the horizontal or transverse plane (which divides the body into upper and lower halves). Therefore, terms directly associated with these planes are median or sagittal and frontal or coronal, which correspond to choice B and C, respectively. Medial, distal, lateral, and proximal are not directly associated with the planes themselves but rather describe locations or directions relative to certain reference points on the body.
