1. Place a purple star on the woman’s left antebrachial region. (This is her left forearm, the part of her upper limb that
lies between her wrist and her elbow.)
2. Is the antebrachial region proximal or distal to the brachial region? (It is distal. The brachial region is the part of the
upper limb that lies between her elbow and her shoulder.)
3. Place an orange star on the man’s right crural region. (This is his right leg, between his knee and his ankle.)
4. Is the crural region anterior or posterior to the sural region? (The crural region is toward the front of the leg, and the
sural region is toward the back, so crural is anterior to sural.)
5. Place a red star on the man’s left pectoral region. (This is the left side of his chest, where his “pecs” are.)
5. Make an “X” medial to the red star. (The star should be located close to the midline of his body, over his breastbone or
“sternum.)
5. Place a blue star on the man’s frontal region. (This is his forehead.)
6. Is the blue star superior or inferior to the man’s orbits? (The orbits are the eye sockets, so the frontal region is
superior to the orbits. The orbits are inferior to the frontal region.)
7. Make an “X” on the woman’s mental region. (The “X” should be located on her chin.)
8. Is the “X” medial or lateral to her buccal region? (The buccal region is the cheek, so the mental region is medial to her
buccal region.)
9. Place a green star on the woman’s left patellar region. (This is the area where her kneecap is.)
10. What region is immediately proximal to the patella? (The thigh or femoral region is immediately proximal to the
patella.)
11. Place a red star on her contralateral pedal region (contralateral to her left patella). (Contralateral means on the
opposite side of the body, so the star should be on her right foot.)
12. Is the gluteal region visible in this picture? What about the lumbar region? What about the vertebral region? (None
of these regions are visible because they are posterior. We are looking at anterior views of the man and woman.)
