What else can I help you with?
Is the shoulder proximal or distal to the wrist?
Proximal vs. distal, is in reference to the Point of attachment to the axial skeleton. So the shoulder is proximal to the wrist, or the wrist is distal to the shoulder. Distal= further away Proximal= closer
The portion of the nephron closest to the renal corpuscle is the?
Proximal tubule
Is the elbow proximal or distal to your fingers?
The hand is distal, because your hand is drawing away from your body. Proximal means closer to the body.Example: The elbow is distal to the chest. The elbow is proximal to the hand. The hand is distal to the chest and the elbow.
Are fingernails proximal to the wrist?
The fingernails are distal to the wrist. The wrist is proximal to the fingernails.
What is the proximal medial aspect of the proximal phalanx of the toe?
Proximal means closer to the origin of the limb or finger. Medial means the inside aspect, closer to the midline. So the proximal medial aspect of the proximal phalanx is the "inside" edge of the first bone of the toe, closer to the beginning of the toe than to the end.
When axial skeleton is axis of the body is it distal or proximal?
The axial skeleton, which includes the skull, vertebral column, and rib cage, serves as the central axis of the body. It is considered proximal in relation to the appendicular skeleton (the limbs), as it is closer to the center or midline of the body. Therefore, the axial skeleton is proximal, while the appendicular skeleton is more distal.
What is the Axial skeleton is axis of the body is it distal or proximal?
The axial skeleton is the central core of the body, consisting of the skull, vertebral column, and rib cage. It serves as the axis around which the body is organized and provides support and protection for the brain, spinal cord, and thoracic organs. In terms of anatomical position, the axial skeleton is considered proximal to the appendicular skeleton, which includes the limbs. Thus, it is not described as distal; instead, it is more central and closer to the center of the body.
Is the shoulder proximal or distal to the wrist?
Proximal vs. distal, is in reference to the Point of attachment to the axial skeleton. So the shoulder is proximal to the wrist, or the wrist is distal to the shoulder. Distal= further away Proximal= closer
What is the proximal direction of the body?
Proximal means closer to the origin of the limb, so the knee is proximal to the ankle, and the wrist is proximal to the thumb.
Is the head distal or proximal to the shoulders?
Proximal
Is the ankle is proximal to the foot?
Proximal, anything closer to midsection in proximal (closer) than distal (distant).
Are peyer patches in the proximal or distal intestine?
proximal ?
The portion of the nephron closest to the renal corpuscle is the?
Proximal tubule
What is the skeleton of the heart composed of?
This question is asking about the overall makeup of the heart and its structures which refer to its "skeleton":It consists of rings of connective tissue that surrounds the pulmonary trunk and aorta at their proximal ends. It provides firm attachments for heart valves and muscle fibers.
Differentiate between proximal and distal parenting?
proximal parenting
The proximal end of the forearm refers to?
The olecranon is known as the proximal end of the forearm. The proximal end of the forearm refers to the olecranon.
Is the elbow proximal or distal to your fingers?
The hand is distal, because your hand is drawing away from your body. Proximal means closer to the body.Example: The elbow is distal to the chest. The elbow is proximal to the hand. The hand is distal to the chest and the elbow.
