Basilar artery is formed by the union of what two arteries?
vertebral arteries
The basilic artery in the brain receives blood from what two arteries?
The left & right vertebral arteries.
What are the two vertebral arteries?
The vertebral arteries are branches from the subclavian arteries that travel up the spine in the foramen transversarium and into the skull in the formen magnum. They fuse at the level of the midbrain to form the basilar artery and then the posterior cerebral arteries. They supply blood to the brainstem, cerebellum and posterior portions of the brain.
What level of neck does the carotid arteries bifurcate?
cervical vertebral c5-6
What do carotid and vertebral arteries supply?
They supply the brain (and structures of the head, as well) with oxygenated blood.
Basilar artery is formed by the union of what two arteries?
vertebral arteries
What two paired arteries enter the skull to supply the brain?
The anterior portions of the brain are supplied by the internal carotid arteries. The posterior portion of the brain is supplied by the vertebral arteries.
The basilic artery in the brain receives blood from what two arteries?
The left & right vertebral arteries.
Which vessel is formed when the vertebral arteries join together at the base of the skull?
The right and left vertebral arteries join together to form a single basilar artery at the base of the skull.
Passageway for vertebral arteries in cervical vertebrae?
Tranverse formamina
Provides the brain with oxygen and nutrients?
Oxygen and nutrients are provided to the brain via the carotid arteries and vertebral arteries.

What blood vessel conducts blood to the head?
The major arteries involved include 1) the right and left carotid arteries, and 2) the right and left vertebral arteries.
What is the main blood vessel that goes to the brain?
Carotid arteries supply blood to brain . Blood is supplied to the entire brain by 2 pairs of arteries: the internal carotid arteries and vertebral arteries. The right and left vertebral arteries come together at the base of the brain to form a single basilar artery. The basilar artery joins the blood supply of the internal carotid arteries in a ring at the base of the brain. This ring of arteries is called the circle of Willis. The circle of Willis provides a safety mechanism...if one of the arteries gets blocked, the "circle" will still provide the brain with blood.
What veins pass through the transverse vertebral foramina?
No veins pass through the the transverse foraminae. The vertebral arteries, however, pass through these spaces on their way to the brain.
Why are humans and cows in the same phylum and and class?
that is because humans and cows have many common features such as vertebral column same development in the nucleus
