Refers to the back or posterior side of the body or an organ. In humans, it's the opposite of ventral.

# data[].attributes.body
Refers to the front or anterior side of the body or an organ. In humans, it contrasts with the dorsal side.

# data[].attributes.body
Indicates a position above or higher than another part of the body. For example, the head is superior to the chest.

# data[].attributes.body
Refers to a position below or lower than another part of the body. For example, the feet are inferior to the knees.

# data[].attributes.body
Lying face down on the stomach. This position is used in certain medical exams or procedures.

# data[].attributes.body
Lying face up on the back. It is the opposite of the prone position.

# data[].attributes.body
Positioned farther away from the midline of the body. The arms are lateral to the chest.

# data[].attributes.body
The standard reference position of the body is where a person stands upright with feet together, arms at the sides, and palms facing forward. This position is used to describe body parts relative to each other.

# data[].attributes.body
Refers to a part of the body that is farther from the point of attachment or the trunk. For example, the hand is distal to the elbow.

# data[].attributes.body
Refers to a part of the body that is closer to the point of attachment or the trunk. For example, the shoulder is proximal to the wrist.

# data[].attributes.body
A horizontal plane that divides the body into superior (upper) and inferior (lower) parts. It is also called the horizontal plane.

# data[].attributes.body
A vertical plane that divides the body into equal left and right halves. It runs down the midline of the body.

# data[].attributes.body
A vertical plane that divides the body into anterior (front) and posterior (back) parts. It is also called the coronal plane.

# data[].attributes.body
The action of bending a joint reduces the angle between two bones. For example, bending the elbow is an example of flexion.

# data[].attributes.body
The action of straightening a joint increases the angle between two bones. For instance, straightening the knee is an example of extension.

# data[].attributes.body
The inward rotation of the forearm or foot, turning the palm or sole downward. In the forearm, it rotates the radius over the ulna.

# data[].attributes.body
The outward rotation of the forearm or foot, turning the palm or sole upward. In the forearm, the radius is placed parallel to the ulna.

# data[].attributes.body
The movement of a body part in a superior direction. For example, raising the shoulders is an elevation of the scapula.

# data[].attributes.body
The movement of a body part in an inferior direction. Lowering the shoulders after shrugging is an example of depression.

# data[].attributes.body
The rotation of a limb or part of the body towards the midline. For instance, turning the arm inward at the shoulder is internal rotation.

# data[].attributes.body
The rotation of a limb or part of the body away from the midline. Turning the leg outward at the hip is an example of external rotation.

# data[].attributes.body
A circular movement of a limb that combines flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction. For example, swinging the arm in a circle is circumduction.

# data[].attributes.body
The movement of the foot where the toes point downward, as in pressing on a gas pedal. It increases the angle between the foot and the shin.

# data[].attributes.body
The movement of the foot where the toes point upward, decreases the angle between the foot and the shin. It is the opposite of plantar flexion.

# data[].attributes.body
Positioned closer to the midline of the body. For example, the nose is medial to the ears.
