medial: towards the midline (ear to nose)
lateral: away from the midline (nose to ear)
nose is midline, cheekbone is away from midline
Answer: No, the nose is towards the midline as compared to the cheekbones. It is medial.
Yes, the nose is medial to the cheekbones. The nose is toward the midline as compared to the cheekbones. Lateral is away from midline (opposite of medial.)
No. It is the other way around, the nose is medial to the cheek bones.
Yes -- they are located farther from the midline of the body than the nose.
The facial bones that form the lateral edges of the eye sockets and the cheekbones are called zygomatic bones, also known as the cheekbones.
The humerus is lateral to the sternum. The sternum, or breastbone, is midline.
Yes, the nose is medial to the cheekbones. The nose is toward the midline as compared to the cheekbones. Lateral is away from midline (opposite of medial.)
No. It is the other way around, the nose is medial to the cheek bones.
Since it is in about the same plane as your cheekbones it can not be considered to be superficial. But the nose is medial to the cheekbones and the cheekbones are lateral to the nose.
Yes -- they are located farther from the midline of the body than the nose.
The facial bones that form the lateral edges of the eye sockets and the cheekbones are called zygomatic bones, also known as the cheekbones.
in terms of anatomy, your ears are lateral from your nose
The nose is superior to the pharynx. Both structures are midline, so neither is lateral to the other.
The humerus is lateral to the sternum. The sternum, or breastbone, is midline.
lateral and posterior to the nose
eyes
The directional term that best describes the ears in relation to the nose is "lateral." This means the ears are situated to the side of or away from the midline of the body in relation to the nose.
Yes, the eyes are distal to the nose. "Distal" refers to a position farther away from the body's center or point of attachment, whereas "proximal" refers to a position closer to the body's center or point of attachment.
