Visceral Membrane

touches the organ (heart)....also there is fluid in between the visceral and parietal.

Parietal Membrane

outer side ..organs the organ in place...

Ventral Cavity ( one of the main 2 cavities)

front of the body ...includes thoracic which includes the pleural lungs and cardiac heart....includes the abdominopelvic, abdominal, pelvic which includes reproductive organs and urinary organs.

Dorsal Cavity (one of the big 2 cavities as well)

everything on the back of the body....including the cranial skull with the brain and the spinal with the spinal cord.

Transverse

Divides body into upper (superior) and lower (inferior) parts.

Sagittal

A plane that somewhat divides the body into the middle

Midsagittal

A plane perfectly divides the body in the middle

Frontal

directly divides the anterior and posterior parts of the body.

abdominopelvic cavity

includes the abdomen and the pelvic in the ventral region.

cranial cavity

includes the brain and the skull in the dorsal region

spinal cavity

includes the spinal connection and is apart of the dorsal cavity.

thoracic cavity

contains heart and lungs ....part of the ventral region

Cytology

study of cells

Histology

study of tissues

Pathology

study of effects of diseases on organs, tissues, etc.

Gross anatomy

big stuff- you can see it with your eyes

Microanatomy

need a microscope to view

Anatomy

study of shape+ structure of body parts

Physiology

study of how body parts work and function together

use proximal and distal

distal is moving away from the trunk of the body...while distal is moving farther away from the body ex: your wrist is distal to your shoulder...your shoulder is proximal to your wrist
