Where does the subclavian artery take blood to and from?
As indicated by the name, subclavian, these arteries are located beneath the clavicles. On the right, the subclavian artery arises from the brachiocephalic artery and extends to the axillary artery. The left subclavian artery arises from the aorta distal to the left carotid and extends to the axillary artery.The subclavian arteries (left and right) are branches of the aorta supplying both the left and right arms respectively.The left subclavian artery stems directly from the AortaThe right subclavian artery is a branch of the brachiocephalic artery when itbifurcates into the common carotid artery and the right subclavian artery.The subclavian veins are continuations of the axillary veins. They are joined by the internal jugular veins to form both the right and left brachiocephalic veins then drain into the superior vena cava. The nerve to subclavius or subclavian nerve is a branch of the brachial plexus which arises from the junction of the fifth and sixth cervical ventral rami.

Why is a blot clot inside an artery so dangerous?
A blood clot inside an artery can block the flow of blood, partially or entirely, which that artery would normally carry. If the artery supplies the heart and it becomes blocked, the result is a heart attack. If it supplies the brain and it becomes blocked, the result is a stroke. Either can easily be fatal, and if not fatal, can still be very damaging. And then, even if the artery supplies some other part of the body, every part of the body needs a blood supply, and there is going to be a problem if the blood supply is cut off or reduced.
