3. Describe the borders of the omental bursa/lesser sac. Describe the embryological relationships that lead to the development of the omental bursa/lesser sac.
4. Describe the ligaments and contents of the foregut. Identify the embryonic origins of these ligaments and describe the development events that lead to their adult locations
Vasculature
Describe the relationship of the duodenum to the portal vein in the adult and relay the developmental steps that lead to this adult relationship
