Which of the following arteries is an unpaired visceral branch of the abdominal aorta?
Inferior mesenteric artery: an unpaired artery that arises about 4 cm superior to the bifurcation of the abdominal aorta, at the level of L3 vertebra….Branches.
| Anterior group | Celiac trunk Superior mesenteric artery Inferior mesenteric artery |
|---|---|
| Terminal branches | Left common iliac artery Right common iliac artery |
What artery is unpaired?
The unpaired visceral arteries supply the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, spleen, pancreas, gallbladder, and liver and are made up of the celiac trunk, superior mesenteric artery (SMA), and inferior mesenteric artery (IMA).
What are all the branches of the abdominal aorta?
There are five arteries that branch from the abdominal aorta: the celiac artery, the superior mesenteric artery, the inferior mesenteric artery, the renal arteries and the iliac arteries.
What is the difference between paired and unpaired arteries?
Paired Arteries and Unpaired Arteries For example, there are two kidneys on opposite sides of the body, and each is supplied blood by one of two renal arteries. In contrast, unpaired arteries exist as a single artery.
Which branch or branches of the abdominal aorta supplies the stomach quizlet?
celiac, superior mesenteric, renal, gonadal and inferior mesenteric arteries.
What are the third branches of the abdominal aorta?
| Abdominal aorta | |

What are the unpaired veins?
Thus, azygos means unpaired. The azygos vein is unpaired in that there is only one in the body, mostly on the right side. While there is the hemiazygos vein and its accessory on the left side of the body, they are considered tributaries of the azygos vein rather than its left-side equivalent.
What Innervates the abdominal aorta?
The abdominal aorta and its branches. The abdominal aorta is the largest artery in the abdominal cavity. As part of the aorta, it is a direct continuation of the descending aorta (of the thorax)….Branches.
| Artery Branch | inferior mesenteric |

| Vertebra | L3 |
| Type | Visceral |
| Paired? | no |
| A/P | ant. |
Which branch or branches of the abdominal aorta supplies the stomach?
celiac trunk
The stomach is supplied by a rich system of arteries derived from the celiac trunk, the first major visceral branch of the abdominal aorta. The lesser curvature of the stomach is supplied by the left and right gastric artery, which are branches of the celiac trunk and the common hepatic artery respectively.
Which of the following are branches of the abdominal aorta quizlet?
What is the anterior branches of abdominal aorta?
The anterior branches of the abdominal aorta are the celiac, superior mesenteric (SMA), gonadal, phrenic, and inferior mesenteric arteries (IMA). The lateral branches are the renal and middle adrenal arteries (Table 10-1).
