The midsagittal section passes through the cranium, brain, spinal cord, vertebrae, intervertebral disks, rectum, vagina, penis, trachea, esophagus, sternum, a bit of the liver, intestines, urinary bladder, and urethra, among other structures.
Yes, a parasagittal section is a cut parallel to and offset from the midline (midsagittal plane) of the body. This type of cut separates the body into unequal left and right portions.
The two eyes would be separated by a midsagittal section.
A transverse section divides a body part into a superior (top) and inferior (bottom) portion.
No, the frontal section would divide the head into front and back portions, which means the eyes would be within the front portion with the back of the head behind them.
The body cavity that would pass through a transverse section at the level of the umbilicus is the abdominal cavity. This cavity contains the digestive organs such as the stomach, intestines, liver, and pancreas.
Yes, a midsagittal section through the body would cut the heart. Although we perceive the heartbeat on the left side of the body, the heart does cross the midline.
A doctor may make a midsagittal cut during an emergency cesarean section.
Yes, a parasagittal section is a cut parallel to and offset from the midline (midsagittal plane) of the body. This type of cut separates the body into unequal left and right portions.
In a midsagittal section, which divides the body into equal left and right halves, organs located laterally, such as the lungs, kidneys, and ovaries, cannot be fully viewed. Additionally, structures like the gallbladder and the spleen, which are situated more towards the sides of the body, would also be obscured. This section primarily reveals midline structures, such as the brain, heart, and spinal cord.

No, the frontal section would divide the head into front and back portions, which means the eyes would be within the front portion with the back of the head behind them.
The dissectional planes that divides the body into left and right equal halves are called the midsagittal plane. This answer is referenced from my dental assisting book. Keisha
You divide 360 degrees by eight (there are 360 degrees in a circle) so each section would be 45 degrees.
The body cavity that would pass through a transverse section at the level of the umbilicus is the abdominal cavity. This cavity contains the digestive organs such as the stomach, intestines, liver, and pancreas.
You measure the entire and divide that by the total.
That would be called a transverse section.
