The image shows a dissected view of the abdominal cavity with the skin and the muscle layers displaced laterally to reveal the greater omentum. The rectus abdominis muscle is a long muscle of the anterior abdominal wall, which originates from the pubic bone and inserts onto the xiphoid process and costal cartilages. It has been removed in this dissection. The arrow indicates the greater omentum, which is a double-layered fibro-fatty layer of tissue extending from the greater curvature of the stomach inferiorly to the pelvis and back up to the transverse colon.

QuestionChoice
The image shows a dissected view of the abdominal cavity with the skin and the muscle layers displaced laterally to reveal the greater omentum. The lesser omentum is a double-layer of tissue located in between the liver and the lesser curvature of the stomach. It is located deeper in the abdomen compared to the greater omentum.

Lesser omentum
QuestionChoice
The image shows a dissected view of the abdominal cavity with the skin and the muscle layers displaced laterally to reveal the greater omentum. The greater omentum is a double-layered fibro-fatty layer of tissue extending from the greater curvature of the stomach inferiorly to the pelvis and back up to the transverse colon. The greater omentum is the largest of the omenta.

Greater omentum
QuestionChoice
The image shows a dissected view of the abdominal cavity with the skin and the muscle layers displaced laterally to reveal the abdominal contents. The mesentery is a double-fold of the peritoneal membrane, which attaches the small and large intestine to the posterior wall of the abdominal cavity. This is located deeper compared to the structure indicated by the arrow, which is the greater omentum.

Mesentery
QuestionChoice
The image shows a dissected view of the abdominal cavity with the skin and the muscle layers displaced laterally to reveal the greater omentum. The peritoneum represents a smooth membrane which lines the abdominal and pelvic cavities, surrounding the organs. However, the arrow indicates the greater omentum, which is a double-layered fibro-fatty layer of tissue extending from the greater curvature of the stomach inferiorly to the pelvis and back up to the transverse colon.
