The greater omentum arises from what part of the stomach?
The greater omentum arises from the greater curvature of the stomach. It is a large apron-like structure made of fatty tissue that hangs down over the intestines.
What is the function of the greater curvature?
Curvatures of the stomach:Lesser Curvature forms the right border of stomach, which extends from cardiac orifice to the pylorus. The lesser omentum is attached to lesser curvature and the liver. The lesser omentum forms the anterior boundary of the omental foramen and contains hepatic artery, portal vein and bile duct within its lower border.Greater Curvature extends from left of cardiac orifice, over dome of fundus, and along left border of stomach to the pylorus.The gastrosplenic ligament attaches to the upper part of the greater curvature and the greater omentum attaches to its lower part.
What is the greater curvature in the stomach?
The stomach, part of the gastrointestinal tract, is a digestive organ located between the esophagus and the duodenum. It has a 'J' shape, and features a lesser and greater curvature. The anterior and posterior surfaces are smoothly rounded with a peritoneal covering. The greater curvature forms the long, convex, lateral border of the stomach. Arising at the cardiac orifice, it arches backwards and passes inferiorly to the left. It curves to the right as it continues medially to reach the pyloric antrum (opening to the pylorus).
Has a convex lateral surface called greater curvature and a concave medial surface called lesser curvature?
The stomach has a greater and lesser curvature. The greater curvature is the more lateral of the two.
What is the bulge of the greater curvature of the stomach superior to the esophageal junction?
The fundus is the bulge of the greater curvature of the stomach superior to the esophageal junction.
Extends as a double fold from the greater curvature of the stomach?
Greater Omentum
What are the attachments of the greater omentum?
The attachments of the greater omentum are: # The Dorsal Abdominal Wall # The Greater Curvature of the Stomach
Has greater curvature and lesser curvature?

What is a Space time curve?
Space time curve is like the layers of the Earth the atmosphere has a lesser curvature than the oceans, the ocean floors have a greater curvature than the oceans, the mantle has a greater curvature, the core has the greatest curvature.The greater the curvature of space,the slower time goes relative to the time passing,in a lesser space-time curvature.If one was to go into a greater curvature of space, you wouldn't notice a slower pace of time, but things may appear farther away,as it would take more of your time to get there.

Why is the large intestine called the large intestine when it is shorter than the small intestine?
The diameter of the large intestine is greater than that of the small intestine.
What structure defines the boundary between the stomach and esophagus?
There is no anatomical sphincter present at junction between stomach and esophagus. The angle formed by greater curvature of stomach demarcates the two organs.
