Do Now How many ways you can cut an apple? Does each way you cut it show a

different part? (Draw out your answer)

BUILDING THE BODY

Outline for Building the Body

Week One Name and locate major body cavities Name basic levels of organization Name functions and components of major body systems

Week Two Use proper anatomical terms Body sectionals Structure and function of epithelial tissues Structure and function of connective tissues

Week Three Structure and function of muscle and nervous tissues Distinguish between 4 types of tissue Review Test (OCTOBER 11th)

This lesson is hard to visualize sometimes.

I have brought along a tool for you to use to help get a feel for what the planes are

Yes, this tool is fun. BUT… You still must have notes written down!

Playdoh Rules Don’t mix colors (I need to reuse these) Keep the playdoh all together (do not

stick little pieces anywhere) ALL playdoh must be returned to the

containers at the end of the lecture

Body Planes and Sections There are THREE main ways that you can

cut the body into planes Planes are imaginary lines that divide

the body. A section is a cut made through the

body in the direction of a certain plane.

Your model Take this time now to create your

“human” out of play-doh Just do your best! Note: They should be fairly thick

Sagittal Plane

Based on these pictures, how would you describe the sagittal plane?

Sagittal Plane Divides the body into right and left parts. A specific sagittal plane that we will use

often is called a midsagittal plane which is when we divide a specimen into equal halves.

Coronal Plane

Based on these pictures, how would you describe the coronal plane?

Coronal PlaneDivides the front (anterior) and back

(posterior) parts of the body.

Transverse Plane

Based on these pictures, how would you describe the transverse plane?

Types of Planes:Transverse (cross) section-divides the

body into upper and lower parts.
