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.
What else can I help you with?
What does it mean to feel something like a pulsating little kick in your lower abdomen?
That is normal; you are feeling the pulse in your aorta. Don't worry.
Which organ does the hepatic artery supply with blood?
The liver, pancreas, and part of the stomach and small intestine.

What is a crayfish's uropod?
the uropod is an abdomenal limb of an athropod
Describe the pathway of metabolic waste from the aorta to the outside of the body in the fetal pig?
Metabolic waste leaves the aorta through the renal artery and enters the kidneys, where it undergoes filtration to form urine. The urine then travels through the ureters to the urinary bladder, where it is stored until it is released through the urethra to the outside of the body.
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.
Are the visceral branches of the abdominal aorta paired?
Yes, the visceral branches of the abdominal aorta are typically paired, meaning they branch off in pairs on either side of the aorta. These branches supply blood to the abdominal organs such as the liver, stomach, spleen, and intestines.
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 is Proximal abdominal aorta?
The proximal abdominal aorta refers to the segment of the aorta that is located in the abdominal region, just below the diaphragm and extending to the point where it bifurcates into the left and right common iliac arteries. This portion of the aorta is responsible for supplying oxygenated blood to various abdominal organs, including the kidneys, liver, and intestines. It is also a critical area for the assessment of vascular conditions, such as aneurysms or blockages.
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.
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.
