The renal arteries.
The abdominal aorta (and inferior vena cava for that matter) is a primary retroperitoneal structure.
The abdominal aorta splits at about the lumbosacral joint into two common iliac arteries.
No, the pulmonary artery branches from the right ventricle of the heart, not the aorta. The pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood from the right side of the heart to the lungs for oxygenation. The aorta, on the other hand, is the main artery that carries oxygenated blood from the left side of the heart to the rest of the body.
The trachea branches into the left and right main bronchi, which further divide into smaller bronchi within the lungs. These smaller bronchi continue to branch into bronchioles, which eventually lead to alveoli where gas exchange occurs.
The diaphragm divides the thoracic and abdominal aorta. These are both parts of the descending aorta, extending from the aortic arch.
The diaphragm divides the aorta into a superior thoracic aorta above the diaphragm and an inferior abdominal aorta below the diaphragm.
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.

The renal arteries.
abdominal aorta The Abdominal aorta is the longest section of the aorta, beginning at the diaphragm and spanning the abdominal cavity. The Thoracic and abdominal aorta together make up the descending aorta.
what quadrant is the bifurcation of the abdominal aorta in
There are actually more than one portion of the aorta that is in the abdominopelvic cavity. The left ventricle and thoracic aorta of the heart lead to the abdominal aorta which begins at the diaphragm. The abdominal aorta first branches into the inferior phrenic and celiac arteries, superior mesenteric and middle suprarenal arteries, renal and gonadal arteries, lumbar artery, inferior mesenteric artery, and the median sacral and common iliac arteries. From there, the artery splits to form the two common iliac arteries that carry blood to the legs.
The aorta is usually divided into five segments/sections:Ascending aorta: the section between the heart and the arch of aortaArch of aorta-the peak part that looks somewhat like an inverted "U"Descending aorta-the section from the arch of aorta to the point where it divides into the common iliac arteriesThoracic aorta-the half of the descending aorta above the diaphragmAbdominal aorta-the half of the descending aorta below the diaphragm
