Best Answer

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.
