1. RIGHT ELBOW
A. Right Wrist
Because it is further away from where the arm is attached to the body or torso.
B. Right Shoulder
Because it is closer than the elbow with respect to the point the arm is attached to the body.
C. Right Palm
Because it is further away from the midline or middle of the body.
D. Right Collar bone or Right Clavicle
Because it is closer to the midline than the elbow.
2. LEFT COLLAR BONE
A. Sternum (This is that big bone in the middle of your chest)
Because it is closer to the midline of the body than the left collar bone.
B. Left shoulder
Because it is further away from the midline than the collar bone.
C. Nerves
The clavicle or the collar bone mainly protects these and they are found below the surface which makes them deep.
3. LEFT CHEEK
A. Nose
The nose is further to the front of the body than the cheeks, which makes this anterior to the cheek.
B. Left Ear
The left ear is found further to the back part of the body. Although it can also be considered lateral, but with respect to the cheek, the ear is found also more towards the back.
C. Left nostril
The nostril is medial to the left cheek because it is located closer to the midline of the body. The nose is in the midline actually, because it falls on the midline.
4. BELLY BUTTON
A. Ureters
The ureters run along the sides of the belly button (not right beside). It is located beneath the surface, but considering their position, it could also be considered lateral because they are further away from the midline.
B. Intestines
The intestines are beneath the surface of the body, so this is considered as deep. Your intestines are found in the abdominal area, where your belly button is too, but it is found beneath the skin.
C. Stomach
Your stomach is found above the belly button, in the upper area of the abdomen. So this is what makes it superior (in terms of position) to the belly button.
D. Legs
Any part that is found below the location of the belly button would be considered inferior to the belly button in terms of position. You can find your legs below your belly button line.
5. LEFT KNEE
A. Left thigh
Your thigh is found higher or above the knee, so this would make it superior. Other parts of the body that are above the knee would be considered superior to the knee.
B. Left ankle or Toes on the left foot.
The left ankle is further away from the point where your legs meet the torso area, so this makes it distal to the left knee.
C. Left Thigh also
You can find the thigh closer to the point your legs meet the trunk of your body or the torso. Based on its position, this would make it proximal to the left knee.
Explanation:
Here are some tips clues on anatomical directions and positions:
Distal = further away from the torso or point of attachment to the torso
Proximal = nearer to the point of attachment (opposite of distal basically)
Medial = Close to the midline of the body, or the line that divides the right and left side of the body.
Lateral = further away from the midline.
Deep = Away from the exterior or surface of the body
Anterior = towards the front
Posterior = towards the back
Superior = above or higher
Inferior = below or lower
Let's take A and B of your first question:
A. List a body part that is distal to your RIGHT ELBOW.
The body part then you are looking for is one that is further than your Right Elbow from the torso area. The answer would then be the RIGHT wrist, or anything even further like your RIGHT palm or Right Hand or Fingers
B. List a body part that is proximal to your RIGHT ELBOW ( I am assuming).
The part then you should look for is one that is closer to the torso area, so that would be your RIGHT Shoulder.
