The plane separating the body into anterior and posterior portions is called:

Coronal
Midsagittal
Sagittal
Transverse

The correct answer is: Coronal

The plane that divides the body into anterior (front) and posterior (back) portions is known as the coronal plane. This is different from the midsagittal plane (B), which divides the body into left and right halves, and the sagittal plane (C), which can refer to any plane parallel to the midsagittal plane. The transverse plane (D) divides the body into superior (upper) and inferior (lower) portions, making it incorrect for this question.
