Anatomy for the EMT
Across
- 2. Rotating the segment of the extremity distal to the joint toward the midline.
- 4. The study of body functions of a living organism in an abnormal state.
- 6. When a patient is placed on his or her side to allow the easy drainage of fluids from the mouth; also called the left lateral recumbent position.
- 7. Turning the palms upward (toward the sky).
- 10. The study of the body functions of the living organism.
- 11. An imaginary vertical line drawn from the middle of the forehead through the nose and the umbilicus (navel) to the floor; also called the midline.
- 12. The position of reference in which the patient stands facing you, arms at the side, with the palms of the hands forward.
- 15. An imaginary plane dividing the body into left and right parts.
- 16. An imaginary line drawn through the midportion of the axilla to the waist that is parallel to the midline.
Down
- 1. The position in which the body is supine with the head lower than the feet.
- 3. The study of the structure of an organism and its parts.
- 4. The measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
- 5. An imaginary line where the body is cut into top and bottom parts.
- 7. Above a body part or nearer to the head.
- 8. The study of body parts that are visible to the naked eye, such as bones, muscles, and organs.
- 9. The bending of a joint resulting in the distal segment moving toward the proximal segment.
- 13. The bending of a joint resulting in the distal segment moving away from the proximal segment. Typically results in straightening of the limb at the joint.
- 14. In anatomy, parts of the body that lie farther from the midline; also called outer structures.
