MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Distal-away from or farthest from the trunk or the point or origin of a part (example, the hand is located at the distal end of the forearm).

Detailed explanation-2: -The anatomical term meaning farther from the point of attachment of a limb to the body trunk is: distal.

Detailed explanation-3: -Proximal means nearer to the center (trunk of the body) or to the point of attachment to the body. If another reference point is given, such as the heart, the proximal point of another organ or extremity is the point closest to the heart, central rather than peripheral. Proximal is the opposite of distal.
