Explanation:

In an anatomical position, directional terms are used to describe the position of the body parts with respect to each other. Anterior, also referred to as ventral position, means the specific body part is at the front of the body or facing forward.

According to the given position of the standing body, palms are facing forward making them anterior in position. The body is standing on the floor with flat feet which means that the toes of the feet are also facing forward.

This makes both toes and palms of the given standing body to be anterior in their position.
