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.

The mesentery holds the intestines to the dorsal body wall. The mesentery is a double layer of peritoneum that attaches the intestines to the back wall of the abdominal cavity, providing support and allowing for blood vessels and nerves to reach the intestines.
Important peritoneal folds include the greater omentum, lesser omentum, mesentery, and mesocolon. The peritoneal lining itself is not considered an important peritoneal fold.
Rutherford Morrison called greater omentum as "abdominal policeman". it is the largest peritoneal fold and is developed from dorsal mesogastrium. it is a long wide- fold of peritoneum often located with fat which hangs from greater curvature of stomach like an apron and conceals the viscera below stomach and liver. one of the important functions of greater omentum is to limit the spread of infection and seal it off from surrounding areas.
The stomach has a greater and lesser curvature. The greater curvature is the more lateral of the two.
The greater omentum is located in the stomach. It is like an apron that extends from the greater curvature of the stomach to the transverse colon. Its purpose is for fat deposition, immune contribution, and infection and wound isolation. The lesser omentum, on the other hand, extends from the liver to the lesser curvature of the stomach. There is no known function of the lesser omentum.
The double-layered folds of peritoneum that support the portions of the small intestine are called mesentery. The mesentery provides a pathway for blood vessels, nerves, and lymphatics to reach the intestines, in addition to supporting and holding them in place within the abdominal cavity.
The fundus is the bulge of the greater curvature of the stomach superior to the esophageal junction.
Greater Omentum
lesser omentum, greater omentum, and mesentery
The greater omentum is a large fold of peritoneum that extends from the stomach and hangs down over the intestines. It is attached to the greater curvature of the stomach and the proximal part of the duodenum, extending to the anterior surface of the transverse colon. This structure plays a role in immune responses, fat storage, and protecting abdominal organs.
The attachments of the greater omentum are: # The Dorsal Abdominal Wall # The Greater Curvature of the Stomach

A Mesentery has vessels running through it supplying organs which share attachemnt to it (example, Greater Omentum in abdominal cavity), whereas visceral ligaments lack vessels (arteries, veins).
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.
