Phagocytosis
|
ATP

|
|
Pinocytosis

2. Organization and restored blood supply --- The blood clot is replaced with granulation tissue 2. Regeneration and fibrosis --- Surface epithelium regenerates and the scab detaches --- Fibrous tissue matures and begins to resemble the adjacent tissue Results in a fully regenerated epithelium with underlying scar tissue |

Parasaggittal Plane
|
All other sagittal planes, offset from the midline, are parasagittal planes (para = near)
|
|
|
Frontal/Coronal Plane
|
Frontal planes, like sagittal planes, lie vertically. Frontal
planes, however, divide the body into anterior and posterior parts. A frontal plane is also called a coronal plane |
|
|
Transverse Plane
|
... or horizontal, plane runs horizontally from
right to left, dividing the body into superior and inferior parts. Many different transverse planes exist, at every possible level from head to foot. A transverse section is also called a cross section. |
