The plane that divides the body into superior and inferior portions.
What is the transverse plane?
The maintenance of a relatively stable internal environment and often incorporates a form of feedback regulation.
What is homeostasis?
The anatomical term which best describes a structure toward the head.
What is superior?
Supports and protects the cell's organelles. It is where glycolysis take place during cellular respiration
What is the cytoplasm?
The multitude of chemical reactions constantly going on within the body's cells.
What is metabolism?
This body cavity houses the heart and lungs.

What is the pelvic cavity?
Increases disruptive influences and involved in accelerating blood clotting, transmitting nerve signals, and stimulating contractions during childbirth; contrast to negative feedback
What is positive feedback?
When a subject is standing upright facing the observer with palms forward.
What is anatomical position?
Describes a groups of cells that are similar in structure and perform a specific function
What are tissues?
The process through which complex molecules such as proteins are constructed from simpler ones.
What is anabolism?
Sideway movements occur in this plane
