ANAT 711 bc organs

QuestionAnswer
irregular, roughly-shaped, lymphoid organ that is closely related to foregut but protected by the thoracic cage, found on the left side near the stomach, posterior and superior spleen
adventitial capsule of what organ is very thin making traumatic rupture a medical emergency as it receives a rich vascular supply and can bleed profusely spleen
first, shortest, and widest part of small intestine; receives both bile and pancreatic juices from common bile duct and main pancreatic duct; has 4 parts: superior, descending, horizontal, and ascending duodenum
large, flat, and finely-lobulated gland associated with duodenum; produces endocrine and exocrine secretions; 4 components: head, neck, body, tail; has a uncinate process; has 2 main ducts pancreas
part of pancreas that sits posterior to SMA and SMV uncinate process
green sack on inferior surface of right lobe of liver; receives, concentrates, and stores bile that's produced in the liver; parts: fundus, body, cystic duct, neck, spiral fold gallbladder
part of gallbladder that leads to the cystic duct and allows for storage of bile spiral fold
part of gallbladder that connects to the common bile duct cystic duct
largest gland in the body and is the largest organ other than the skin; 4 lobes: right, left, quadrate, and caudate liver
lobe of liver that is posterior next to the gallbladder quadrate lobe
lobe of liver that is posterior and superior caudate
sac-like dilation of alimentary canal/GI tract and is closed by 2 sphincters; 4 parts: cardia, fundus, body, pyloris stomach
function of the sphincters of the stomach keep acid in stomach
muscular tube that descends through superior mediastinum after passing through superior thoracic aperture and exits through the diaphragm esophagus
part of heart that receives oxygenated arterial blood from the atrium on that side through the bicuspid valve and propels blood through the aortic valve into systemic circulation left ventricle
what part of the heart contains anterior and posterior papillary mm., trabeculae carneae, bicuspid valve, chordae tendinae, and aortic vestibule left ventricle
part of heart that receives oxygenated arterial blood from right and left pulmonary veins after pulmonary circulation left atrium
what part of the heart contains the valve of foramen ovale, left auricle, and right pulmonary veins left atrium
part of heart that receives deoxygenated venous blood from atrium on same side through the tricuspid valve and propels venous blood through pulmonary valve; contains septal, ant., & post. papillary mm., pulmonary valve, conus arteriosus, moderator band right ventricle
part of heart that receives venous drainage from systemic circulation through SVC, IVC, and coronary sinus; contains fossa ovalis, valve of IVC, crista terminalis, pectinate mm., right auricle, valve of coronary sinus right atrium
trachea is most superior, bifurcates at level of T4, after the split primary bronchi make their way to each lung, they then branch into lobar/secondary bronchi which go to each lobe, lastly branch into segmental/tertiary bronchi trachea and bronchial trees
which lung has three lobes and two fissures (horizontal and oblique) right
which lung has two lobes, only an oblique fissure, has a lingula and cardiac notch left
part of small intestine, smaller external diameter, less arterial branches with a large diameter, has less fat in mesentery, circular folds in intestinal mucosa, vasa recta, second part jejunum
part of small intestine, larger external diameter, more arterial branches with a small diameter, more fat in mesentery, arterial arcades, aggregate lymphoid nodules ileum
assists in diagnosis of malrotation of gut, origin is right crus of diaphragm, between end of duodenum and start of jejunum duodenojejunal flexure
where ileum contacts cecum ileocecal junction
stores waste for intestines cecum
stops waste/contents from going back to small intestine ileal papilla
opening for appendix vermiform process
lobules of fat that hang off of the colon and possibly store adipose tissue or reduce friction between intestines epiploic appendages
bumps on colon that increase surface area and store waste haustra
longitudinal ribbons that contract to produce haustra and are continuous with appendix teniae coli
separates thoracic cavity and abdominal cavity, anchored to lumbar vertebrae by musculotendinus crura, has a central tendon, numerous structures pass through diaphragm
located in retroperitoneum in extraperitoneal connective tissue lateral to vertebral column, right one sits more inferior than left one due to relationship with liver kidneys
kidney is immediately enveloped by a dense fibroconnective tissue called what renal capsule
renal capsule of kidney is surrounded by what along with perirenal fascia perineal fat capsule
outer layer of fat that is continuous with retroperitoneal fat on the kidneys pararenal fat
entrance to renal sinus within the kidney renal hilum
where urine drains into after it has been filtered through the nephron, composed of major and minor calices that lie within the renal sinus and continue inferiorly as ureters renal pelvis
composed of renal cortex and medulla that contributes to formation of renal pyramids renal tissue proper
house the functional units of kidneys renal pyramids
extends to form renal columns which divide inner renal medulla to form renal pyramids renal cortex
2 kidneys fused typically at inferior pole, 1 in 400 people, primarily in males, blood supply is anomalous and can be variable, ureters tend to insert into renal pelvis at a more superior location horseshoe kidney
long muscular ducts that are ~10 inches long, carry urine from kidneys to bladder, travel inferiorly and retroperitoneally, formed from renal pelvis ureters
pass anteriorly to bifurcation of common iliac aa. and posterior to gonadal a. and v. and enter posterosuperior angle of bladder to aid in formation of trigone of bladder ureters
surrounds prostatic urethra, surrounded by prostatic capsule, can be divided into several different zones and lobes prostate
located posterolaterally to urethra in external urethral sphincter, mucous-like excretions enter urethra during arousal to lubricate for ejaculation bulbourethral glands
continuation of duct of epididymis where it will than ascend through spermatic cord into pelvis, will enlarge to form ampulla of ductus deferens before joining seminal vesicle and forms ejaculatory duct ductus/vas deferens
found in internal urethral orifice, made of smooth m. and is therefore under involuntary control internal urethral sphincter
most anterior element of pelvic viscera, when empty it is located in the lesser/true pelvis, when full it goes into the greater/false pelvis, can be found at the level of umbilicus urinary bladder
sit on the anterior aspect of bladder, has embryological uses urachus
communicates with trigone of bladder ureters
communicates with urethra in bladder ejaculatory duct
found inferior to the bladder in males prostate
functions to produce ova and secrete hormones such as estrogen and progesterone, female gonad ovary
uterine portion, isthmus, ampulla, infundibulum, fimbriae parts of uterine tube
funnel or trumpet shaped portion of uterine tube infundibulum
fingerlike processes of uterine tube fimbriae
traverses uterine wall and contains uterotubal junction uterine portion of uterine tube
fibromuscular tube that joins the internal reproductive organs to external environment vagina
body of the uterus is (anteflexed/anteverted) over the cervix anteflexed
cervix is (anteflexed/anteverted) over vagina anteverted
thick-walled reproductive organ that sits posterior to bladder and anterior to rectum, considered moveable depending on position and distention of adjacent organs uterus
