The plane that separates the body into left and right halves is called the:

Coronal
Midsagittal
Sagittal
Transverse

The correct answer is: Coronal

Coronal, midsagittal, sagittal, and transverse are terms that can all be used to describe planes that divide the body into different sections. However, only one of them - coronal - separates the body into left and right halves. A and C are incorrect because they both refer to planes that divide the body into anterior (front) and posterior (back) sections. D is incorrect because it refers to a plane that divides the body into superior (upper) and inferior (lower) sections. The other options are not incorrect, but they do not accurately describe the plane that divides the body into left and right halves.
