Yes, sort of... The aorta carries blood from the heart to the rest of the body. Two of the prominent connections to the aorta are the left and right carotid arteries, which carry blood to the brain, along with the vertebral arteries.

∙ 12y agoYes! The aorta carries blood away from the heart. Oxygenated blood from the lungs(blood which is rich in oxygen) circulates to the heart and enters it through the left atrium, and flows down into the left ventricle. When the ventricles contract (due to pumping of heart), the blood is pushed into the aorta (the largest artery). From the aorta, the blood is channeled into other arteries (which are smaller than the aorta) and eventually circulated all over the body.
