The jugular veins are blood vessels which carry deoxygenated blood from the brain back toward the heart. The jugular veins are divided into external and internal sets.
It's a main artery in the throat that helps pump blood.
They carry deoxygenated blood from the brain back to the right atrium where the process of oxygenation starts again.
Blood is supplied to the brain thru the carotid arteries, and drained thru the jugular vein.
The jugular vein carried 'used' blood from the brain - back towards the heart.

AnswerIt's called the carotid vein. Veins carry blood towards the heart and arteries carry it away. The vein that carries deoxygenated blood to the heart from the upper body is called the superior vena cava and the vein that carries blood from the head to that vein through the neck is the jugular vein.
The internal jugular vein is formed from the sigmoid sinus (after receiving the lesser petrosal sinus) just after passing through the jugular foramen to become the internal jugular vein.
In humans there is one external and one internal jugular vein. The internal jugular vein is much larger (about twice the diameter) of the external jugular. In the cat there are a pair of each vein but the external jugular vein is about twce as large as the internal. (Opposite of humans.)
