| Runs vertically through the body separating it into a front (anterior) and back (posterior) parts. | Coronal plane (frontal plane) |
| Runs Horizontally through body separating it into upper (superior) and lower (inferior) parts. | Transverse plane |
| The person is upright, facing forward, feet are shoulder width apart, palms facing forward, same regardless of motion. | Anatomical position |
| Toward the point of attachment of the limb. The opposite is distal which means it is away from the point of attachment. (applies to legs and arms, limbs) | What is proximal and the opposite term? |
| Below, at a lower level- toward the feet. The opposite term is Superior which is above, at a hight level - toward the head. | What is Inferior and the opposite term? |
| Close to the midline of the body. The opposite term is lateral and is when a part of the body is further away from the midline of the body. | What is medial and the opposite term? |
| The back surface. The opposite term is anterior and is the front surface. | What is posterior and the opposite term? |
| The axis of movement is sagittal | What is the axis of movement for the coronal plane? |
| The plane is Transverse | What is the plane that have the axis of movement longitudinal/ vertical? |

| There is smooth and rough , makes products like lipids carbs, fats and proteins | Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) |
| Stores, modify and package products synthesised by ER | Golgi apparatus |
| It's purpose is to isolate the cell from surrounding environment (ECF) forming a physical barrier. | Plasma membrane/ cell membrane |
| Allows substances such as lipids, oxygen and CO2 to pass through the plasma membrane easily. | Diffusion |
| Permit movement of substances into & out of the cell that cannot pass through cell membrane. | Channels |
| Loves exposed surfaces, Lines internal passageways & chambers, forms secretory glands. | Epithelial Tissue |
| Squamous, cuboidal and columnar. Simple epithelium is one layer and stratified layers is more than one | What are the 3 basic epithelial tissue shapes? |
| Fills internal spaces, provides structural support and stores energy | Connective tissue |
| Conducts electrical impulses, carries information. Nervous tissue contains 2 cells, neurogila or glial cells | Nervous tissue |
| Contracts to produce movement, includes skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle and smooth muscle. | Muscle tissue |
| 50% muscle tissue, 45% connective tissue, 3% Epithelial tissue, 2% nervous tissue | What is the percentage of each muscle tissue in the human body? |
