right & left iliac arteries

Brachiocephalic veins give off the ______ & ______

internal & external jugular veins

subclavian veins

The right and left iliacs give off ______ before becoming ______

give off internal iliacs before becoming external iliacs

Where do external iliacs terminate?

inguinal ligament

3 major branches of the ABDOMINAL aorta

celiac artery

superior mesentaric artery (SMA)

renal arteries

The celiac artery arises from

anterior from the aorta

The celiac artery branches into ______, ______, & ______

left gastric artery

common hepatic artery

The superior mesenteric artery (SMA) travels ______ & ______

anterior and superior

the renals originate from the

lateral aspect of the aorta

How do the gonadal arteries travel?

inferiorly

The ____ gonadal artery originates slightly superior to the other

left

The inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) supplies blood to the ______

iliacs are a division of the ________

distal aorta

What artery supplies blood to the lesser curvature of the stomach and eventually anastomoses with the right gastric artery?

the left gastric artery

splenic artery

The common hepatic artery branches into the ______ & ______

gastroduodenal artery & proper hepatic artery

the _____ supplies right side of greater curvature of stomach via the right gastropoploic artery

gastroduodenal artery (GDA)

the celiac artery gives off the

pancreatic duodenal artery (PDA)

the proper hepatic artery supplies blood to the liver via

left renal vein

What carries blood and nutrients from the bowel and abdominal organs to the liver for metabolism and detoxification?

portal circulation

the main portal vein branches into the

right and left portal veins
