Question

activity 5: match the body part to its neighbor
directions: look at each body part in column a. find another body part that sits right next to it in column b. write the correct letter on the line to the right of each body part.
column a - body parts

1. liver ____
2. spleen ____
3. appendix ____
4. stomach ____
5. gallbladder ____
6. pancreas ____
7. ascending colon ____
8. sigmoid colon ____
9. cecum ____
10. descending colon ____

column b - what’s next to it
a. sits next to the stomach b. sits under the liver c. connected to the cecum d. next to the spleen e. next to the gallbladder f. behind the stomach g. continues from the ascending colon h. comes before the rectum

Explanation:

Based on anatomical knowledge of the human body's internal organs and their spatial relationships:

1. The gallbladder sits under the liver.
2. The stomach is next to the spleen.
3. The appendix is connected to the cecum.
4. The pancreas is behind the stomach.
5. The liver is next to the gallbladder.
6. The pancreas is next to the stomach.
7. The transverse colon continues from the ascending colon. But in the given options, no perfect - match for ascending colon's direct neighbor is there. However, in general anatomy, it continues from the ascending colon.
8. The sigmoid colon comes before the rectum.
9. The appendix is connected to the cecum.
10. The sigmoid colon is next to the descending colon.

Answer:

1. B
2. D
3. C
4. F
5. E
6. A
7. (No perfect match in given options but conceptually it continues to transverse colon)
8. H
9. C
10. (No perfect match in given options but conceptually sigmoid colon is its neighbor)
