The blood moves in a lateral direction to the distal right thumb. Then the blood comes back in a proximal direction toward the medial body, where the heart is located.
The proximal row of carpal bones of the wrist, from medial to lateral, in the anatomical position, are: the triquetrum, lunate, and scaphoid.
No. When the body is in the anatomical position, the thumb is further away from the midline. You say that the thumb is lateral to the ring finger.
The four proximal carpal bones from lateral to medial are the scaphoid, lunate, triquetrum, and pisiform. Remember what anatomical position looks like when thinking about the lateral or medial location of the bones of the upper extremity.
proximal
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.
Lateral refers to a left-to-right relationship, eg, the left lung is lateral to the right lung.Distal refers to a near-far or base-tip relationship. The fingertip is distal; the base of the finger is proximal.
The knee is proximal or superior to the metatarsals. It can't be described is medial or lateral to the metatarsals.
Proximal. As opposed to distal or medial.
You can describe them as medial to the scapula.
No, the lateral malleolus is the distal end of the fibula. The medial malleolus is the distal end of the tibia.
I think they are inner and outer ankle The Medial malleolus if found on the Tibia and the Lateral malleolus is found on the Fibula. The ankle connect to the Medial and Lateral malleolus.
The 5 pairs of directional terms with regards to human anatomy are: anterior - posterior medial - lateral dorsal - ventral proximal - distal profound - superficial
