Description should include
- body planes
- anatomical positioning descriptors (sternal, lateral)
- relative-positioning terms (e.g., cranial, caudal, proximal)
- species-specific terms (e.g., croup, withers, stifle, dewlap).
Process/Skill Questions:
- How is the anatomy of all animals similar?
- What are some major variations among the anatomies of different animals?
- What is the body cavity that houses the heart and lungs?
- What is the body cavity that lies caudal to the thorax?
- How can the distal end of one bone be adjacent to the proximal end of another bone?
