Across
  1. 2. movement away from the midline or out to the side of the body.
  2. 7. a long edge on a flat bone, such as the medial border of the scapula.
  3. 8. increasing the angle between between bones aka straightening.
  4. 9. a large, usually roughened projection, such as the gluteal tuberosity of the femur.
  5. 10. refers to the bottom of the foot.
  6. 11. located on or pertaining to the same side of the body.
  7. 15. means two sided.
  8. 16. moving the foot so the toes point toward the nose.
  9. 17. a scapular movement in which it turns so the glenoid fossa turns upward.
  10. 21. movement of the arm along the transverse plane toward the body.
  11. 22. plane that divides the body into front and back
  12. 23. movement of the wrist toward the pinky side of the forearm.
  13. 26. a long, raised ridge, such as the spine of the scapula.
  14. 28. closer to the surface of the body.
  15. 29. axis that goes side to side, perpendicular to sagittal plane. Typically flexion and extension movements.
  16. 30. the front of the body or the front of a body part or closer to the front,
  17. 32. a smaller, rounded projection found above a condyle, such as the medial epicondyle of the femur.
  18. 33. axis that goes up and down, perpendicular to transverse plane. Typically rotational movements.
  19. 35. below or closer to the feet. Also not typically applied to extremities.
  20. 36. a rounded articulating projection, supported by the constructed, neck-like portion of a long bone, such as the head of the humerus.
Down
  1. 1. a standard body position that is used to give us a consistent orientation to the body from which directional terms are referenced.
  2. 3. a very large, protruding projection, such as the greater trochanter of the femur.
  3. 4. a prominent ridge or elongated projection, such as the iliac crest.
  4. 5. lying on side
  5. 6. movement anterior or forward. Applies to scapula and mandible.
  6. 12. a sharp, pointed projection, such as the styloid process of the ulna.
  7. 13. turning toward the midline in an inward direction.
  8. 14. extension beyond anatomical position
  9. 18. closer to the core/trunk. Generally used when describing a location on a limb.
  10. 19. plane that divides the body into right and left
  11. 20. plane that divides the body into upper and lower portions
  12. 24. movement in which the sole of the foot moves toward the midline.
  13. 25. closer to the midline or mid-sagittal plane.
  14. 27. movement of the hand and forearm medially, generally toward palm down.
  15. 31. lying on back
  16. 34. an abrupt change of direction on the border of a flat bone, such as the superior angle of the scapula.
