To travel from the aorta to the left, or right, occipital lobe, it would have to go through the aortic arch, common carotid artery, external carotid artery, then occipital artery.

What are the pathway of a drop of blood from the aorta to the left occipital lobe of the brain and What are the structures through which it flow?

The drop of blood travels as follows: From the aortic arch to the left subclavian artery. Then through the left vertebral, passing though the transverse foramina of the cervical vertebrae (from C6-C1) At the C1 level the vertebral arteries travel across the posterior arch of the atlas before entering the foramen magnum into the skull. From here, it merges with with that vertebral artery on the right side to become the basilar artery. The blood then travels through a branch of the basilar known as the posterior cerebral artery. This artery's branches are divided into two sets, the ganglionic branches and, the cortical branches. The particular artery largely supplying the occipital lobe is known as the parietoöccipital or parieto-occipital artery, and is a cortical branch.
