Expert Solution

Step 1 Introduction on Anatomical terminology

Anatomical terminology- It is a form of scientific terminology that is used by anatomists, clinicians, anthropologists, etc.
Anatomical terminology uses many unique terms in the form of suffixes and prefixes derived from ancient Greek and Latin. These terminologies could be confusing for those who are not familiar with them. To be more precise, these terms reduce ambiguity and errors while describing a structure or body part. Since these terms are not used in everyday conversation, their meanings are less likely to change and less likely to be misinterpreted.
