Which of the following is not one of the nine regions of the abdomen?
a) Left iliac
b) Right umbilical
c) Epigastric
d) Right hypochondriac
e) Hypogastric



Answer :

The correct answer to the question is: b) Right umbilical Explanation: 1. The human abdomen is divided into nine regions called abdominal regions. These regions are used to describe the location of organs and structures within the abdomen. 2. The nine regions of the abdomen are as follows: - Right hypochondriac - Epigastric - Left hypochondriac - Right lumbar - Umbilical - Left lumbar - Right iliac (inguinal) - Hypogastric (pubic) - Left iliac (inguinal) 3. Among the options provided, "Right umbilical" is not one of the nine standard regions of the abdomen. The correct term for the central region around the navel is "Umbilical" without specifying right or left. 4. Therefore, option b) Right umbilical is the correct answer as it does not correspond to one of the nine standard abdominal regions.
