Let’s Review!
What plane of view do each of these pictures represent?
Transverse
Sagittal
Complete the handout on anatomical planes, axes and position
Body Position Terminology
• The following terms will become like a second language for you. These terms are used to describe position of the body and will be used extensively when we talk about muscles and bones
Medial- towards the midline(centre) of the body
Lateral- away from the midline of the body
Proximal- situated closest to the point of attachment
Distal- situated farthest from the point of attachment
Superior- towards the top of the body (cranial)
Inferior- towards the bottom of the body (caudal)
Anterior- towards the front of the body (ventral)
Posterior- towards the back of the body (dorsal)
Superficial- on or close to the surface of the body
Deep- farther away from the surface of the body
THE Basic Movements of the Human BodyThe following words will build on the vocabulary learned yesterday. The
basic movements of the human body occur around and because of our joints. You are expected to start using these terms frequently, because no longer do you “bend,” you “flex.” “Rolling” your ankle becomes an ankle “inversion.” And “pointing” your toe, will now be referred to as “plantar flexion”
Flexion
Extension
-bending the joint to reduce the angle between two bones.
-occurs in the sagittal plane
-straightening a joint to increase the angle
-occurs in the sagittal plane
Abduction
Adduction
-movement away from the medial plane
-occurs in the frontal plane
-movement towards the medial plane
-occurs in the frontal plane
Circumduction
-a circular motion combining flexion, extension, abduction and adduction
-occurs in all 3 planes
Internal (Medial) Rotation
External (Lateral) Rotation
-moves anterior part of a limb medially (towards midline)
-occurs in the transverse plane
-moves anterior part of a lim laterally (away from midline)
-occurs in the transverse plane
Pronation
Supination
-rotation of hand; bring thumb towards midline; plam facing back
-occurs in transverse plane
-rotation of hand; bring thumb away from midlein;palm facing forward
-occurs in transverse plane
Dorsiflexion
Plantarflexion
-movement of ankle to decrease angle between foot and lower leg
-occurs in sagittal plane
-movement of ankle to increase angle between foot and lower leg
-occurs in sagittal plane
Inversion
Eversion
-medial border of foot is raised; sole of foot turned medially (inward)
-occurs in frontal plane
-lateral border of foot raised; sole of foot turned laterally (outward)
Protraction
Retraction
-moving in an anterior (forward) direction
-occurs in sagittal plan
-moving in a posterior (backward) direction
-occurs in sagittal plane
Oppostion
-thumb comes into contact with another finger
Reposition
-return thumb to anatomical position
Elevation
-raising up to a more superior position
-occurs in frontal plane
Depression
-pulling down to a more inferior position
-occurs in frontal plane
