No it passes behind it. Only the oesophagus and vena cava pass through it, this is because they use the muscle qualities of the diaphragm as a sphincter and to aid blood and lymphatic return.
abdominal aorta is the portion of the descending aorta inferior to the diaphragm. it passes thru a hole in the diaphragm called aortic hiatus
2-3 inches above the umbilical.
yes, it is small(24 atoms) and has no charge
coeliac artery
The aorta consists of : the ascending aorta, the arch of the aorta, the thoracic portion of the descending aorta, and the abdominal portion of the descending aorta.
The three structures you are looking for are the Asophagus, the Descending Aorta and the Vena Cava. Do not fall for the trap placed be asking for three structures, which might lead you to include the trachea in place of the vena cava. The trachea bifrucates at the level of T4 where it enters the lungs, far above the thoracic diaphragm.
Descending aorta Inferior vena cava
The diaphragm divides the aorta into a superior thoracic aorta above the diaphragm and an inferior abdominal aorta below the diaphragm.
thoracic aorta
abdominal aorta is the portion of the descending aorta inferior to the diaphragm. it passes thru a hole in the diaphragm called aortic hiatus
2-3 inches above the umbilical.
The diaphragm divides the thoracic and abdominal aorta. These are both parts of the descending aorta, extending from the aortic arch.
abdominal aorta The Abdominal aorta is the longest section of the aorta, beginning at the diaphragm and spanning the abdominal cavity. The Thoracic and abdominal aorta together make up the descending aorta.
The ascending aorta extends from the aortic root (which connects the aorta to the heart), upwards toward the aortic arch. The thoracic aorta is one of two parts of the descending aorta, which extends back down towards the abdomen after the aortic arch. The thoracic aorta is the part of the descending aorta that is above the diaphragm, while the abdominal aorta is below the diaphragm.
The opening where the esophagus passes through the diaphragm is called the esophageal hiatus or esophageal opening in the diaphragm.
The cerebellum is part of the nervous system. The aorta is a major artery, the fibula is a bone in the lower legs and the diaphragm is a muscle needed for breathing.
