Ligaments-
The cavity within the abdomen, inside of which are the internal organs.
a double layer of peritoneum that links the stomach to other intra-abdominal organs.
The lining that connects the intestine to the back of the abdominal wall; contains the arteries and veins
that supply the intestines.
Fibrous, slightly elastic band of tissue which holds organs in place.

Membrane attached to the superior or medial border (lesser curvature) of the stomach.
broad, fan-shaped fold of peritoneum which connects the folds of the small intestine with the
posterior wall of the abdomen.
mesentery that holds the lower colon the back abdominal wall.
Another name for the large intestine. It extracts moisture from food residues before they are excreted.
transverse colon.
the part of the large intestine that descends from the transverse colon to the sigmoid colon.
lower end of the large intestine, leading to the anus.
Organ where most digestion occurs; includes the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum.
The first part of the small intestine (the part food enters immediately after it leaves the stomach).
The part of the small intestine that is near the large intestine.

middle section of the small intestine between the duodenum and ileum.
the attachment of the urinary bladder to the ventral body wall.

and progesterone.

The bottom or base of the stomach, farthest from the opening.
The muscular tube through which food passes from the throat to the stomach.
Tube that carries urine from the kidney to the bladder.
largest organ in the body; performs important functions such as making bile, changing food into energy, and
cleaning alcohol and poisons from the blood.
Arteries:
1. Abdominal aorta-
Section of the aorta running through the abdomen between the diaphragm and the iliac
arteries. Gives off arteries that branch and supply organs of the abdomen with oxygen-rich blood.

Superior mesenteric- Supplies the pancreas and small intestines with oxygen-rich blood.
Gastric- Supplies the stomach with oxygen-rich blood.
Inferior mesenteric- Supplies the transverse and descending colon with oxygen-rich blood.
Renal- Supplies the kidneys with oxygen-rich blood.
Internal iliac- Branch to supply the gluteal muscles, medial side of each thigh, urinary bladder, uterus and other
structures with oxygen-rich blood.
7.
External iliac-
8.
Adrenolumbar (suprarenal)- Supply the adrenal glands with oxygen-rich blood.
Iliolumbar- Supply spinal cord and muscles and skin of the lower back region with oxygen-rich blood.
Hepatic- Supplies the liver and gall bladder with oxygen-rich blood.
Splenic- Supplies the spleen with oxygen-rich blood.

Extend through the pelvis and enter the thighs to become the femoral arteries, supplying muscles of
the legs with oxygen-rich blood.
Veins
1. Gastric- Transports deoxygenated blood from the stomach back to the heart.
2. Inferior Vena Cava- Transports deoxygenated blood from the legs and abdomen back to the heart.
3. Hepatic- Transports deoxygenated blood from the liver back to the heart.
4. Renal- Transports deoxygenated blood from the kidneys back to the heart.
5. Adrenolumbar (suprarenal)- Transports deoxygenated blood from the adrenal glands back to the heart.
6. Iliolumbar- Transports deoxygenated blood from the spinal cord, and muscles and skin of the lower back region
back to the heart.

Internal iliac-

External iliac-
Transports deoxygenated blood from the gluteal muscles, medial side of each thigh, urinary bladder,
uterus and other structures back to the heart.
Are continuous with the femoral veins and receive deoxygenated blood from the lower extremities
and inferior part of the anterior abdominal wall.
Common iliac- Formed by the union of internal and external iliac veins, and join with the inferior vena cava.
10. Hepatic portal- Formed by the union of the superior mesenteric and splenic veins.
11. Inferior mesenteric- Transports deoxygenated blood from the large intestine back to the heart.
12. Superior mesenteric- Transports deoxygenated blood from the small intestine and superior portion of the large
