Determine if the organs are superiorinferior or proximaldist

Determine if the organs are superior/inferior or proximal/distal to one another The nose is _________ to the mouth. The shoulder is ______________ to the wrist The stomach is ________________ to the lungs The toes are ___________ to the knees The thigh is ______________ to the ankle The kidney is _________________ to the thighs. The large intestine is ______________ to the stomach The elbow is _______________ to the wrist

Solution

1)The nose is proximal to the mouth

2)The shoulder is distal to the wrist

3)The stomach is proximal to the lungs

4)The toes are distal to the knees

5)The thigh is superior to the ankle

6)The kidney is distal to the thigh

7)The large intestine is inferior to stomach

8)the elbow is distal to the wrist

distal means which is present very far

proximal means which is present very near

inferior means less known part

superior means more known
