An axial plane is a plane which divides the body into superior and inferior parts, at roughly perpendicular angles to the spine. The most commonly used terms for specific axial planes are the transverse plane, the coronal plane, and the sagittal plane.

What is the axial tilt of Saturn?
The moon's equator is inclined 6.7 degrees with respect to its orbit. (Rotation axis is 83.3 degrees from orbital plane.) The moon's orbit is inclined 5.1 degrees with respect to the ecliptic plane ... the plane of the earth's orbit.
Which body plane divides the body into the cephalad and caudad parts?
Horizontal aka travsverse or axial
What angle is the earth spinning at?
The angle between the orbital plane and equatorial plane of the earth (i.e., the angle of axial tilt) is about 23.4 degrees. This gives rise to the earth's seasons.
Is the axis of mercury perpendicular to the plane of the eliptical?
The axial tilt of mercury is around 2.11 degrees, not very much. So yes, the axis of rotation is almost exactly perpendicular to the elliptical plane.
What is the Earth's axial tilt today?
23 degrees 26 minutes. This is the angular difference between the Earth's axis of rotation and the plane of the ecliptic, which is the plane of the Earth's orbit around the Sun. This tilt changes VERY slowly; fractions of a minute of arc each decade.
What is a fold in which the axial plane is horizontal?
the axial plane of a recumbent fold is horizontal and one limb is rotated more than 90 degree and called overturned limb.
Is cat scan an acronym?
CAT scan used to be short for Computerized Axial Tomography. Think of this as using computers to map the body in the axial plane. (axial is a direction that the image is processed in). The newer machines not only do axial but also multiple other imaging planes (coronal,sagital,biplane,multi plane,etc.) So now they dropped the "axial" and just call it CT scan short for Computerized Tomography.
How to date a lawyer?
Bisect one along the axial plane. Count the rings.

What type of joint is the acromioclavicular joint?
The acromioclavicular joint is a plane, or gliding, joint.
Earths axial tilt is how many degree s to the plane of th ecliptic?
The earth's axis is tilted to 23.48 degrees to the ecliptic plane
What is the quality a design has is it maintains all characteristics when it is rotated about an axis lying in its plane?
Axial symmetry.

Is the quality a design has if it maintains all characteristics when it is rotated about an axis lying in its plane.?
Axial symmetry.
Four division of the body?
The human body is often divided into four areas or planes based on anatomy. These areas are the frontal or coronal plane, the transverse or axial plane, the sagittal or median plane, and the midsagittal plane.
Which plant has Axis of rotation is tilted at an angle of 90 degrees from the vertical?
Vertical???? You might be thinking of Uranus which has an axial tilt of 97.7° to the orbital plane (the Earth's axial tilt is 23.44°)
