Solution

Coronary artery

  1. The coronary blood vessels are mainly involved with the circulation of blood to and from the heart muscles.
  2. When the coronary arteries are obstructed, the heart muscles do not perish.
  3. The coronary arteries become hungry for oxygen and nutrients as plaque or waxy substances build up within them.
  4. Ischemia occurs as a result of this condition.
  5. These factors will exacerbate coronary syndrome and other cardiac issues.
  6. The heart cannot pump enough blood to the body's other organs if too much muscle dies.
  7. The heart muscles will not die when the coronary arteries are blocked.
