Detailed explanation-1: -The sagittal plane (/ˈsædʒɪtəl/; also known as the longitudinal plane) is an anatomical plane that divides the body into right and left sections. It is perpendicular to the transverse and coronal planes.
Detailed explanation-2: -The median plane is a vertical plane that divides the body into equal right and left halves, and any vertical plane that is parallel to the median plane is known as the sagittal plane. The coronal plane is a plane that separates the body into anterior and posterior parts and is sometimes known as the ‘frontal plane.
Detailed explanation-3: -Anatomical planes are imaginary lines that are used to transect or divide the human body, in order to describe the location of structures or the direction of movements. FRONTAL or CORONAL PLANE is a vertical plane that divides the body into two pieces known as the ventral and dorsal sections.
Detailed explanation-4: -The transverse plane, or the axial plane, divides the body into upper (superior) and lower (inferior) halves.
Detailed explanation-5: -The sagittal plane divides the right and left side of the brain into parts. The midsagittal plane would divide the right and left sides of the brain into two equal parts, like cutting down the middle of a baked potato before you put on the toppings.
