These matching questions require you to understand directional terminology thoroughly. Remember that anatomical directions apply to a standing human with palms facing outward. Compared with the humerus, the ulna is medial distal anterior posterior lateral inferior superior proximal Compared with the cranium, the mandible is medial distal anterior posterior lateral inferior superior proximal Compared with the thoracic vertebrae, the sternum is medial distal anterior posterior lateral inferior superior proximal Compared with the hip bones (os coxae), the sacrum is medial distal anterior posterior lateral inferior superior proximal The femur is _________ compared to the tarsals medial distal anterior posterior lateral inferior superior proximal Compared with your pinky (smallest) finger, your thumb is medial distal anterior posterior lateral inferior superior proximal
