Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that anatomical location terms are used to describe the positions of structures in the body relative to each other.
Review the definitions of the given terms: 'Distal' refers to a position farther from the point of attachment or origin, 'Proximal' refers to a position closer to the point of attachment or origin, and 'Lateral' refers to a position away from the midline of the body.
Recognize that 'Sagittal' is not a term used to describe a location but rather a plane that divides the body into left and right parts.
Identify that the question is asking for a term that does not fit the category of anatomical location terms.
Conclude that 'Sagittal' is the correct answer as it describes a plane rather than a location.
