aorta
My son has a burst artery. In his arm what will happen
a main vein is the superior vena cava a main artery is the brachial artery in the arm where blood pressure can be detected easily
The brachial artery branches into the ulnar and radial arteries. The brachial artery is the main artery of the arm.
the artery in the axilla i.e:the axillary artery when crosses the teres major muscle enters the arm and becomes the brachial artery(brachum means arm). then in the cubital fossa (across the elbow joint) it divides into ulnar and radial artery which run in the fore arm.
the aorta. Its attached to your heart
The main vessels that carry blood to the arm are the brachial artery and the subclavian artery. The brachial artery runs along the upper arm, while the subclavian artery is located near the shoulder and branches into smaller arteries that supply blood to the arm.
brachial
A pulse can be felt where an artery crosses a bone. The main areas where the strongest pulse may be felt are the carotid artery in the neck, the brachial artery in the crook of the arm and the radial artery in the inner wrist.
This comes from my A&P lab manual... "In the armpit, the subclavian artery becomes the axillary artery, which serves the upper limb." The previous answer was "brachial," which could also be a correct answer. "The brachial artery divides into the radial and ulnar arteries, which follow the same-named bones to supply the forearm and hand."
