Well, the blood vessels that supply the heart with blood so that it can function can become blocked. Thereby causing heart damage. However, even during a heart attack, the heart may continue to beat, so blood will continue to enter the artia.

No, because cardiac arrest is when the heart stops; so this means if someone goes into cardiac arrest, he/she will die (unless he/she is saved by medical care/help). You probably mean heart attack.

The areas that are painful include: Chest (severe pain), left arm and jaw (note: not all these areas may be in pain during a heart attack).

Do you bleed from the mouth during a heart attack?

Not from the heart attack itself. In a heart attack, the heart is deprived of oxygen from the blockage of a coronary artery. This does not usually cause bleeding, but it does cause the death of the muscle cells if they don't get oxygen.
