Step 1: Solve Question 1.
The axillary artery is a continuation of the subclavian artery. Its branches include the superior thoracic, thoracoacromial, lateral thoracic, subscapular, and anterior and posterior circumflex humeral arteries. The thoracoacromial artery is a branch of the second part of the axillary artery.

  • a. The axillary artery originates from the subclavian artery, not the arch of the aorta.
  • b. The axillary artery gives origin to the thoracoacromial artery. This is correct.
  • c. The superior thoracic artery is typically the first branch, not the lateral thoracic artery.
  • d. The brachial artery divides into radial and ulnar arteries, not the axillary artery
