prone - lying on belly supine - lying on back brachium - shoulder to elbow antebrachium - elbow to wrist carpus - wrist manus - hand digits - fingers/toes crus - knee to ankle tarsus - ankle

pes - foot meninges - layers of tissue that help protect delicate structures in dorsal cavity mediastinum - contains heart, attached vessels, esophagus, thymus and trachea thoracic cavity - left/right pleural cavities+mediastinum parietal pleurae - lining of pleural cavity visceral pleurae - lining of lung pleural fluid - fluid in potential space of pleural cavity pericardial cavity - surrounds heart parietal pericardium - lines pericardial cavity visceral pericardium -

lines heart peritoneum - 2 layers that line abdominal cavity & organs peritoneal fluid - fluid that fills potential space of abdominal cavity retroperitoneal - peritoneum on anterior side only lamp - light source of light microscope stage - hold specimen on microscope nose piece - contains objectives scanning objective - locates objects at 4X medium/ocular objective - specimen is viewed in greater detail at 10X maximum magnification on light microscope - 40x

components of focus knob - fine/course adjustment magnification of eyepiece - 15X cheek cell - squamous cell Mechanical stage control - Move stage or slide around Anatomical position - Looking at body erect, feet up floor arms at side and face and eyes facing forward. Palms forward Diaphram - Adjust the amount of light Max magnification - Eye piece and objectives 15x10= Vertebral cavity - Encloses spine Sagittal plane - Divide body by left and right Parasagittal plane - Unequal left and right halves

Frontal plane - Coronal plane, front and back halves Anterior - Towards the front or belly, ventral Posterior - Towards the back or spinal cord, dorsal Transverse plane - Upper lower parts divided at waist Superior - Anything above or towards head Inferior - Below certain object or towards feet Medial - Closer to bodies midline, vertical Lateral - Further away from midline Proximal - Describing something closer to a point of attachment Distal -

Something further away from the point of attachment Superficial - Closer to body surface Deep - Further from body surface Axial region - Head neck and trunk waist up Trunk - Thoracic above diaphragm Abdominal - Anything below the level of the diaphragm including upper left and right quadrant and lower left and rightquadrant Thigh - Top of leg Tooney Appendicular region - Upper and lower limbs Cranial cavity - Encloses brain Ventral cavity - Enclose a spinal cavity

Dorsal cavity - Three layers of delicate tissued called meninges protect and line the brain and spinal cord Pleural cavities - In the thoracic cavity, contain or surround the lungs, line by two layer membrane called Cora/pleura Thoracic cavity - Three portions called left right and mediastinum -itis - inflammation of Pleura cavity - Potential space in between parietal and visceral cavity in plural cavity pleurisy - inflammation of the pleura Mediastinum - Contain Heart and vessels that attach to it, esophagus, trachea, time is Glenn Pericardial cavity - Smaller area that surrounds the heart Pericardium - Two layer membrane in the pericardial cavity

Pericarditis - Inflammation of the pericardium Abdominalopelvic cavity - Second subdivision of ventral body cavity Abdominal - Anything above brim of pelvis. Digestive organs, kidneys, ureter Pelvic cavity - Anything below the brim of the pelvis, Distol all part of largeIntestine, bladder, urethra, reproductive organs Parietal peritoneum - Line the abdominal cavity Visceral peritoneum - Cover surface of internal organs Retroperitoneal - Located between peritoneal in dorsal body cavity. Only anterior surface of these organs are covered by the peritoneal. Kidneys, part of pancreas, some of digestive organs, adrenal glands
