The aorta branches out and what ends up going into the arm are the brachial (and radial, etc) arteries.

Does the abdomenal aorta go to your liver?

No, the abdominal aorta does not go directly to the liver. Instead, the abdominal aorta branches into several arteries, including the celiac trunk, which further divides into the hepatic artery. The hepatic artery specifically supplies blood to the liver, while the abdominal aorta itself runs down the midline of the abdomen, supplying blood to various other organs.


Why is the aorta important?
