Chapter 01: Introduction to Head and Neck Anatomy
MULTIPLE CHOICE
• Which of the following is CORRECT concerning the sagittal plane of the body?
a. Parallel to the median plane
b. Parallel to the frontal plane
c. Parallel to the horizontal plane
d. Parallel to the coronal plane
ANS: A

Feedback
A A sagittal plane is parallel to the median plane.
B A sagittal plane is NOT parallel to the frontal plane but perpendicular.
C A horizontal plane is perpendicular to the median plane. A sagittal plane is parallel to the median plane. Thus a horizontal plane is perpendicular to a
sagittal plane.
D A sagittal plane is NOT parallel to the coronal plane but perpendicular.

• When a patient is in anatomic position, what is the surface of the palms of the hand considered?
a. Anterior
b. Lateral
c. Medial
d. Posterior
ANS: A

Feedback
A The palms of the hands in anatomic position are facing toward the front and are anterior (or ventral).
B The palms of the hands in anatomic position are NOT facing lateral or away from the median plane but are facing toward the front and are anterior (or ventral).
C The palms of the hands in anatomic position are NOT facing medial or toward the median plane but are facing toward the front and are anterior (or ventral).
D The palms of the hands in anatomic position are NOT facing toward the posterior or back of the body but are facing toward the front and are anterior (or ventral).

• What is the anatomic relationship of the right arm to the left leg?

a. Sagittal
b. Contralateral
c. Ipsilateral
d. Midsagittal
ANS: B




Feedback
A The two legs are contralateral to each other. Sagittal describes a plane of division of the body created by an imaginary plane parallel to the median plane.
B Contralateral structures are located on the opposite side of the body, which is the anatomic relationship of the right arm to the left leg.
C Ipsilateral refers to structures on the same side of the body; in contrast, the two legs are contralateral to each other and thus are located on the opposite side of
the body.
D The two legs are contralateral to each other. Midsagittal describes a plane that divides the body into right and left halves.
