I cannot view or refer to specific illustrations, including Figure 6–3 in your textbook. However, I can help you understand the common directional reference terms used in anatomical position. Here are the typical terms:

  1. Superior - Refers to a body part that is above another part or closer to the head.
  2. Inferior - Refers to a body part that is below another part or closer to the feet.
  3. Anterior (Ventral) - Refers to the front or belly side of the body.
  4. Posterior (Dorsal) - Refers to the back side of the body.
  5. Medial - Refers to a body part that is closer to the midline of the body.
  6. Lateral - Refers to a body part that is farther from the midline of the body.

You can apply these terms to the illustration you're referencing by identifying which directional terms correspond to the labeled parts. If you provide more context, I can give you more specific help!
