The division of the body into sections from front to back, right and left, and top and bottom by the use of the midsagittal plane, the traverse plane and the coronal plane. Along with the movement away from or towards these planes.

Which planes runs longitudinally and divides the body into right and left planes?
Sagittal
What are transvers planes?
Planes that divide the body into superior and inferior portions, and that are at right angles to both the sagittal and coronal planes are termed transverse planes.

Does your body temperature decrease as you approach death?
yes,body temperature decreases as we approach death
What are some negative effects that are associated with the weight-centered approach to body weight?
If you are focused on losing weight instead of being healthy, you might starve yourself of nutrients your body needs.
How is an open adrenalectomy done?
The surgeon may operate from any of four directions, depending on the exact problem and the patient's body type. In the anterior approach, the surgeon cuts into the abdominal wall. Usually the incision will be horizontal.
What body plane divides the body into interior and posterior planes?
coronial plane
Seven organizational approaches to studying the human body?
Keeping in mind that the seven organizational approaches are (1) Body planes and directions, (2) body cavities, (3) quadrants and regions, (4) anatomy and physiology, (5) microscopic to macroscopic, (6) body systems and (7) medical specialties.1. Planes & Directions: Planes & directions are used to describe position and location and guide us much like travel directions or a GPS.2. Body Cavities: These tell us which general part of the internal body we're looking at, like a specific city on a map.3. Quadrants & Regions: These serve the same purpose as Body Cavities but from an external point of view.4. Anatomy & Physiology: Anatomy is form, structure. Physiology is function. These go hand in hand. The structure of a bone, limb or organ can often give clues as to its function, and vice versa. It's as important to understand and appreciate how the body is structured as it is to understand and appreciate how it works. Comprehension of one enhances understanding of the other.5. Micro to Macro: To better know this complex organism called your body, you need to know its structures, processes & functions from the ground up and that means starting with our most basic unit and ending with a complete, functioning body. Microscopic is what we cannot see with the naked eye -- atoms that form molecules, moelcules that form cells. Macroscopic is what we can see and examine without microscopes -- tissue formed from cells, organs formed from tissue, body systems formed from organs.6. Body Systems: A body system is an organ or group of organs that, along with other structures and tissue, work together to perform a specific function. By learning how body systems operate and how they interact with and are dependent on each other, we better understand ourselves and how disease affects them and us.7. Medical Specialties: These medical disciplines focus on specific body systems, how they function, how to keep them healthy and on the diseases and disorders that impair them. One example is Gastroenterology. This specialty focuses on the care of and diseases & disorders of the digestive system.
How can you identify the body symmetry of an animal?
By cutting the body of the animal(dead) or by cutting planes of the required body.
What is understood by the body planes?
The three basic planes of the body used in medicine are sagittal, coronal or frontal, and axial. The sagittal plane is a plane cutting down the body splitting the body into right and left sides. If the plane is through the middle of the body, making equal right and left halves, the plane is called mid-sagittal. The coronal plane is much like the sagittal, except the plane splits the body into anterior and posterior parts. The axial plane is the plane most often used in computed tomography (CT) scans. It splits the body into superior and inferior (or cephalad and caudad) parts. Other planes include oblique, which is like axial, but set at an angle.

Discuss Rene Descartes' metaphysical dualism as opposed to both monism and pluralism?
Descartes' dualism stated that the mind and body were distinct and occupied different planes of reality. A monism theory of reality believes that there is only one reality, and would state that the mind and body are connected. Pluralism believes that there are many realities, not just two, so the mind and body might be distinct, but there would also be other planes of reality.
