  4. Body Planes • Sagittal: divides into left & right sides • Coronal: divides into anterior & posterior portions • Transverse: divides into upper & lower parts

  5. Dorsal Cavity Cranial cavity Spinal Cavity Ventral Cavity Thoracic cavity Pleural cavity Mediastinum Abdominopelvic cavity Abdominal cavity Pelvic cavity Body Cavities

  6. Abdominal regions • 1 right hypochondriac • 2 epigastric • 3 left hypochondriac • 4 right lumbar • 5 umbilical • 6 left lumbar • 7 right iliac • 8 hypogastric • 9 left iliac

  7. Abdominal Quadrants • 1 RUQ • 2 LUQ • 3 RLQ • 4 LLQ • Umbilicus at center • Used by doctors

  8. Transverse Plane

  9. Somatotypes • Endomorph: heavy, rounded with large accumulations of fat in trunk & thighs • Mesomorph: muscular • Ectomorph: thin, fragile, little body fat
