A supra-umbilical transverse incision is made just above the umbilicus (navel) and typically crosses the abdomen horizontally. This incision is generally located in the epigastric region, which is the upper central part of the abdomen. It is often used in surgeries involving the stomach, liver, or other upper abdominal organs.
The incision is being made in the epigastric region.epi- means "above".gastr- means "stomach".-ic means "pertaining to".
No, transverse means crosswise. It would be something across something else. You may make a transverse incision across the abdomen, for example (which could be straight or crooked as long as it is in a cross direction).
An incision is a cut into an object, and pentagonal means five sided, so a pentagonal incision would be a five sided cut into an object.
Costals are just the ribs, so subcostal would indicate an incision just below the bottom rib.
Those would be transverse waves!
Examples of transverse waves would be light waves, seismic waves or any other type of electromagnetic wave.
A cut along the transverse plane= transverse or cross section. *(If cut at an angle= oblique section).
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.
U would make an incision then excise the tissue u were taking for biopsy - in meaning to go in, ex meaning to take out eg. Insert - to put in, exit - to go out. NB. I am not certain but believe biopsies are mostly done via laproscopic methods now so no cut (incision) would be necessary.x
It would be near the descending colon in the left upper quadrant of humans.
Yes
It travels as a transverse wave. A longitudinal wave would mean the the rope is stretching and compressing. The fact that you see displacement perpendicular to the rope means it is transverse.
