Answer:
Medial
Explanation:
Lateral refers to a part of the body that is furthest away from the centre (the centre would refer to an imaginary line from the top of the head through the nose, down the belly button and straight down to the feet). For example, the ear is lateral to the nose. The term lateral comes from Latin, meaning "to the side".
Medial is the opposite, and refers to a part of the body closest to the centre, or the medial plane. So, the nose is lateral to the ears.
