Explanation:

Multiple Choice Questions

1. Biological organization progresses from small, simple structures to large, complex ones: organelles (inside cells) → cells → tissues → organs → organ systems.
2. Distal means far from a body part's attachment point; proximal means close to it, making them direct opposites. Other pairs do not match as opposite directional terms.
3. Lateral is the anatomical term that defines a position away from the body's midline.
4. The three standard, major anatomical planes that divide the body are sagittal, frontal (coronal), and transverse.

Fill-in-the-Blank Questions

1.-4. Superior means toward the upper part of the body; inferior means toward the lower part.
5.-7. Anterior means toward the front of the body; posterior means toward the back.
8.-10. Lateral means away from the body's midline; medial means toward the midline.
