The quiz above includes the coronal, horizontal (or transverse), median and sagittal planes, plus the following questions : The median plane divides the body into ... A coronal plane divides the body into which of the following?
Finally, we will refer to the sagittal plane, which divides the body into left and right sections with a vertical plane that passes from the front to the rear. Sagittal, Coronal, and Transverse body planes and their intersections.
Sagittal planes refer to vertically-oriented, antero-posterior planes which, when pass through the body in its anatomical position, divide it into right and left parts. The sagittal planes lie at right angles to the vertically-oriented coronal planes, while they perpendicularly intersect the transverse (a.k.a. horizontal) planes.
The sagittal plane (lateral or Y-Z plane) divides the body into sinister and dexter (left and right) sides. The midsagittal (median) plane is in the midline through the center of the body, and all other sagittal planes are parallel to it.
