What does the median/sagittal plane divide the body into?

The median or sagittal plane is a vertical plane that divides the body into right and left sections. This plane runs down the center of the body, bisecting it symmetrically. When looking at an anatomical position, any structure on the right side of this plane is considered to be in the right section, while any structure on the left side is in the left section. This division is crucial for understanding body orientation and anatomy, particularly in medical and fitness contexts where precise movements and locations are discussed.

The other options refer to different planes of division; the anterior and posterior sections would be divided by the frontal (coronal) plane, while superior and inferior sections pertain to the transverse plane, which separates the body into upper and lower parts. Therefore, these descriptions do not apply to what the median/sagittal plane accomplishes.
