Video transcript

Hey, everyone. Let's take a look at this question together match the descriptions in column A with the appropriate options in column B. And here we have column A that contains five different descriptions and column B that contains five different terms. And we want to match a term from column B with the correct description in column A. So starting off with our first term in column B, we have letter A which is the radial artery. And we can recall that the radial artery is described as the branch of the brachial artery. And looking at column A, we can see that the branch of the brachial artery is number one. So next to number one, we can put the letter A and cross it off in column B. Next we have B which says the anterior tibial artery, which we note that the anterior tibial artery is described as the branch of the pople artery which we can see in column A is number two. So number two, we can put the letter B and cross it off on our list. Next we have letter C which says the auxiliary artery, which we know that the auxiliary artery is described as the branch of the subclavian artery. And we can see in column a that the branch of the subclavian artery is number three. So next to number three, we can put the letter C and cross it off in our list. Next we have letter D, which is the interlobar artery, which we know that the interlobar artery is described as the branch of the renal artery, which we can see in column A, that the branch of the renal artery is number four. So next to number four, we can put the letter D and cross it off on our list, which leaves us with only one remaining term and one remaining description. So next to number five, we can put the letter E, since the external iliac artery is described as the branch of the common iliac artery. So we can put the letter E next to number five and cross it off on our list, giving us a complete match of the terms in column B with their correct description in column A. I hope you found this video to be helpful. Thank you and goodbye.
