Terminology

6. a long edge on a flat bone, such as the medial border of the scapula.
8. a very large, protruding projection, such as the greater trochanter of the femur.
10. movement of the hand and forearm medially, generally toward palm down.
12. the front of the body or the front of a body part or closer to the front,
13. closer to the midline or mid-sagittal plane.
17. moving the foot so the toes point toward the nose.
22. located on or pertaining to the same side of the body.
23. plane that divides the body into upper and lower portions
26. increasing the angle between between bones aka straightening.
29. movement of the arm along the transverse plane toward the body.
30. refers to the bottom of the foot.
31. plane that divides the body into front and back
32. movement anterior or forward. Applies to scapula and mandible.
33. a smaller, rounded projection found above a condyle, such as the medial epicondyle of the femur.

1. below or closer to the feet. Also not typically applied to extremities.
2. a prominent ridge or elongated projection, such as the iliac crest.
3. a large, usually roughened projection, such as the gluteal tuberosity of the femur.
4. movement of the wrist toward the pinky side of the forearm.
5. an abrupt change of direction on the border of a flat bone, such as the superior angle of the scapula.
7. turning toward the midline in an inward direction.
9. means two sided.
11. movement away from the midline or out to the side of the body.
14. movement in which the sole of the foot moves toward the midline.
15. a standard body position that is used to give us a consistent orientation to the body from which directional terms are referenced.
16. axis that goes side to side, perpendicular to sagittal plane. Typically flexion and extension movements.
18. closer to the surface of the body.
19. closer to the core/trunk. Generally used when describing a location on a limb.
20. a sharp, pointed projection, such as the styloid process of the ulna.
21. axis that goes up and down, perpendicular to transverse plane. Typically rotational movements.
24. plane that divides the body into right and left
25. a rounded articulating projection, supported by the constructed, neck-like portion of a long bone, such as the head of the humerus.
27. lying on back
28. a long, raised ridge, such as the spine of the scapula.
