Is the toes proximal to ankle?
ANSWER: YesTo quote my textbook, Fundamentals of Anatomy & Physiology (2nd Edition) by Donald C. Rizzo: "Proximal means nearest the point of attachment or origin. Example: the elbow is proximal to the wrist, the knee is proximal to the ankle. Distal mean away from the point of attachment or origin. Example: the wrist is distal to the elbow, the ankle is distal to the knee."
Are Proximal and distal opposite directional terms in humans?
Yes, proximal means closer to the trunk (torso) while distal is away from the trunk. The statement "the knee is proximal to the foot" means the knee is closer to the torso than the foot. Conversely, the foot is distal to the knee.
Are the toes distal to the knee?
It is proximal as the knee is closer to the median / midline of the body than the foot. The foot is distal. Distal suggests a structure being further away from the median plane or the root of the limb than another structure in the limb. Proximal refers to a structure being closer to the median plane or root of the limb than another structure in the limb
What is the expanded prominence of upper hip bone?
The expanded prominence of the upper hip bone is known as the iliac crest. It serves as an attachment point for muscles and ligaments, providing stability and support to the trunk and upper body.
Is the elbow distal to the wrist?
The elbow is proximal to the wrist. The wrist is distal to the elbow.
What term means nearest the point of attachment or origin?
The term that means nearest the point of attachment or origin is "proximal." This term is commonly used in anatomy to describe the location of structures relative to the trunk of the body or the point of attachment of a limb. For example, the shoulder is proximal to the elbow.
Is the wrist considered distal to the shoulder?
Distal is away from the center of body trunk or point of attachment. The wrist is farther away from center of body trunk. Proximal is closest to the body central axis or point of attachment, so the shoulder is proximal.
What is the meaning of proximal develment?
Farther from the origin of a body part or the point of attachment of a limb to the body trunk. e.g., your fingers are distal to your elbow
What is the medical term meaning toward the origin of attachment to the trunk?
Proximal is the term that means closer to the origin of a limb.
What is the medical term meaning farthest from center of the body or point of attachment?
Distal is the term that means farther from the attachment of a limb to the trunk or farther from the origination of a structure. For instance, the wrist is distal to the elbow.

How do i get the trunk to close when it sometime works
Means farther from the attachment of a limb to the trunk or farther from the origination of a structure?
distal.
Why a trunk lid will not close?
It is possible the trunk latch has been tripped with trunk up. Use your key fob/remote trunk release on inside and pop trunk. Now try and close. Please let me know if this helps.
What directional term refers to the closest anatomical point of a limb to the body?
Proximal is the term used to say that something is closer to the trunk of the body. Example: The elbow is proximal to the wrist.proximal
