Six pairs of opposite terms are used to describe the relative position of one body part to another- superior/inferior, anterior/posterior, medial/lateral, proximal/distal, superficial/deep, and visceral/parietal.
A sagittal plane divides the body into right and left parts; a transverse, or horizontal, plane divides it into upper and lower regions; and a frontal, or coronal, plane divides it into front and back portions.
The axial portion of the body consists of the head, neck, and trunk; the appendicular portion consists of the limbs or appendages; and specific anatomic terms are used to designate body regions
