Reveal Answer
Correct Answer:
Coronal/Frontal plane
Explanation:
The z-axis is the vertical direction. The coronal (frontal) plane is a vertical slice that runs from side to side and separates the body into front (anterior) and back (posterior). Because it aligns with the vertical axis, this plane is the one associated with the z-axis. The sagittal plane also is vertical but distinguishes left from right, the transverse plane is horizontal, and the oblique plane is any angled cut.
