  2. Coronal plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronal_plane

    The coronal plane is an example of a longitudinal plane.For a human, the mid-coronal plane would transect a standing body into two halves (front and back, or anterior and posterior) in an imaginary line that cuts through both shoulders.

  3. Anatomical plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatomical_plane

    The sagittal plane or lateral plane (longitudinal, anteroposterior) is a plane parallel to the sagittal suture. It divides the body into left and right. The coronal plane or frontal plane (vertical) divides the body into dorsal and ventral (back and front, or posterior and anterior) portions.

    The frontal plane, also called the coronal plane, which divides the body into front and back. [2] The horizontal plane, also known as the transverse plane, which is perpendicular to the other two planes. [2] In a human, this plane is parallel to the ground; in a quadruped, this divides the animal into anterior and posterior sections. [3]

  5. Anatomical terminology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatomical_terminology

    The frontal plane is the plane that divides the body or an organ into an anterior (front) portion and a posterior (rear) portion. The frontal plane is often referred to as a coronal plane, following Latin corona, which means "crown". [1] The transverse plane is the plane that divides the body or organ horizontally into upper and lower portions ...

  6. Sagittal plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sagittal_plane

    Coronal axis, medial-lateral axis, or frontal axis is the axis perpendicular to the sagittal plane, i.e., the one formed by the intersection of the coronal and the transversal planes. [8] Extension and flexion are the movements of limbs within the sagittal plane. [9] Abduction and adduction are terms for movements of limbs within the coronal ...

    This plane represents the anterior cranial base and is formed by projecting a plane from the sella-nasion line Frankfort horizontal plane (Frankfurt horizontal plane) P-Or This plane represents the habitual postural position of the head. condylar plane Co-Or This plane can be used as an alternate to Frankfort horizontal plane.

  8. Frontal lobe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontal_lobe

    Frontal lobe (red) of left cerebral hemisphere. The frontal lobe is the largest lobe of the brain and makes up about a third of the surface area of each hemisphere. [3] On the lateral surface of each hemisphere, the central sulcus separates the frontal lobe from the parietal lobe.

  9. Fly (exercise) - Wikipedia

    The main anatomical planes of the human body, including median (red), parasagittal (yellow), frontal or coronal plane (blue) and transverse or axial plane (green). A fly or flye is a strength training exercise in which the hand and arm move through an arc while the elbow is kept at a constant angle. Flies are used to work the muscles of the ...
