Coronary Arteries supply the muscle of the Heart (Myocardium) with Oygenated blood.
(Coronary Veins carry the deoxygenated blood away from the Heart Muscle.)

What vessel carries food and oxygen to the heart?
Food?! Nothing. If you're referring to how the blood gains oxygen, it is via the coronary arteries which surround the heart, providing the cardiac tissue with energy and oxygen. If you're meaning what blood vessel carries oxygenated blood to the heart it would be the pulmonary vein.
What type of tissue is a blood vessel?
......
How are blood vessels like vascular tissue?
because vascular tissue is a blood vessel
When tissue lining a blood vessel is damaged the first thing that happens is?
The blood cells containing hemoglobin, an iron-containing protein that transports oxygen, are called
What is released when a blood vessel or tissue is injured?

What blood vessel carries oxygen in blood?
pulmonary vein
What blood vessel carries oxygen or oxygen poor blood from the heart to the lungs?
pulmonary artery
What tissue makes up the blood vessel inner tunic?
The tunica interna of a blood vessel is a single layer of endothelium with a basal lamina.Connective tissue
Is a vein a small blood vessel that delivers oxygen and other nutrients to cells?
No, a Capillary is a small blood vessel that delivers oxygen and other nutrients to cells.
Which blood vessel does blood oxygen pass through?
Oxygen and other gases pass through the capillaries.
What happens when blood reaches tissue that doesnt have enough oxygen?
Once oxygenated blood reaches the capillaries, the velocity of the blood is very slow - which favours the exchange of oxygen. Oxygen therefore diffuses across the walls of the capillaries into the tissues that need it.
What causes the transfer of materials between capillaries and tissue fluid?
As blood enters the capillary bed on the arteriole end, the blood pressure in the capillary vessel is greater than the osmotic pressure of the blood in the vessel. The net result is that fluid moves from the vessel to the body tissue.At the middle of the capillary bed, blood pressure in the vessel equals the osmotic pressure of the blood in the vessel. The net result is that fluid passes equally between the capillary vessel and the body tissue. Gasses, nutrients, and wastes are also exchanged at this point.On the venue end of the capillary bed, blood pressure in the vessel is less than the osmotic pressure of the blood in the vessel. The net result is that fluid, carbon dioxide and wastes are drawn from the body tissue into the capillary vessel.
