- anterior mesenteric artery
- coeliac artery
- posterior mesenteric artery
- intestinal artery.
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
The splenic artery is the blood vessel that supplies oxygenated blood to the spleen. It branches from the coeliac artery, and follows a course superior to the pancreas. The coeliac artery is the first major branch of the abdominal aorta and branches from the aorta around the level of the T12 vertebra in humans. It is one of three anterior/ midline branches of the abdominal aorta.

- Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A : The potential (V) at any axial point, at 2 m distance(r) from the centre of the dipole of dipole moment vector \(\vec{P}\) of magnitude, 4 × 10-6 C m, is ± 9 × 103 V.
(Take \(\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}=9\times10^9\) SI units)
Reason R : \(V=±\frac{2P}{4\pi \epsilon_0r^2}\), where r is the distance of any axial point, situated at 2 m from the centre of the dipole.

Concepts Used:
Blood
Blood is a fluid-like structure that is responsible for transporting oxygen and other nutrients to all the cells of the body. Blood shows characteristics of both tissues and fluid.
Composition of Blood:
Blood is composed of the below-mentioned parts:
- Plasma
- Blood Cells
- Platelets
Types of Blood Cells:
The two types of blood cells present in the body are:
RBC (Red Blood Cells)
RBC’s are also known as Erythrocytes. They are biconcave and are present without a nucleus in human beings. It contain Haemoglobin which is an iron-rich protein due to which the color of blood is red. RBC’s are produced in the bone marrow which is mainly responsible for the transportation of oxygen to and from various tissues and organs present in the human body.
WBC (White Blood Cells)
WBC’s are also known as Leucocytes which are colourless blood cells due to the absence of haemoglobin. They are further divided into two categories such as granulocytes and agranulocytes. Their main responsibility is to provide immunity and maintain defence mechanisms in the human body.
