Describe the pathway of metabolic waste from the aorta to the outside of the body in the fetal pig?
The pathway of metabolic waste from the aorta to the outside of the body of a fetal pig begins in the aorta. The abdominal aorta, renal arteries, and bladder excrete the waste to the outside of the fetal body.
Which organ does the hepatic artery supply with blood?
The liver, pancreas, and part of the stomach and small intestine.

Does the Aorta go in the arm?
The aorta branches out and what ends up going into the arm are the brachial (and radial, etc) arteries.
Does blood go to the pulmonary artery after leaving the aorta?
Nope. It goes to the kidneys or intestines first.... It starts at the Left lung. Travels into the left atrium and then into the left ventricle. Then up into the aorta and then gets separated into the kidneys and intestines. From the inestines it enters the liver and ends up in the right atrium and then the right ventricle. From there it goes to the pulmonary artery and then into the right lung.
How do you differentiate between artery and vein in the liver?
The hepatic artery in the liver enters from the bottom and is much smaller in diameter than the aorta or the portal vein that it lies above. The hepatic vein exits the liver from the top, carries blood through the top portion of the liver, and is larger in diameter than the hepatic artery.
What artery has an arterial trunk that has three major branches that serves the spleen liver and stomach?
The celiac trunk is the first major branch of the aorta below the diaphragm. It branches into the common hepatic artery and the splenic artery. Branches of these supply the foregut, which includes, amongst others, the liver, gallbladder, spleen, proximal duodenum, and part of the stomach.
When blood leaves the aorta where does it go?
left ventricle
What is the blood flow path from the mitral valve to the great toe?
From mitral valve the blood will go to left ventricle. From there, the blood will go to ascending aorta. Then arch of aorta. Then descending aorta. Then abdominal aorta. Then to common iliac artery. then to external iliac artery. Which continue as the femoral artery. Then popliteal artery. Then posterior tibial artery. Then medial and lateral planter arteries. Then the branches will go to your great toe.
Why is the aorta important?
It is the main artery from the left ventricle of the heart from which all other arteries branch off of.
