The plane which divides the body into a left and a right is called ............. plane.
Show Hint
- Coronal
- Sagittal
- Vertical
- Transverse
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Planes are imaginary lines that divide the body into sections. The sagittal plane divides the body into left and right parts.
Step 2: Analyzing the options.
- (1) Coronal: Incorrect. The coronal plane divides the body into front and back (anterior and posterior) parts.
- (2) Sagittal: Correct. The sagittal plane divides the body into left and right halves.
- (3) Vertical: Incorrect. This plane divides the body into left and right parts, but it is not the correct anatomical term.
- (4) Transverse: Incorrect. The transverse plane divides the body into top and bottom (superior and inferior) parts.
Step 3: Conclusion.
Thus, the correct answer is (2) Sagittal, as it divides the body into left and right parts.
