The coronary arteries are the blood vessels that nourish the heart. Even though blood goes through the heart, that blood is not the way that the muscle itself picks up nutrients and disposes of wastes.
The arteries that supply the cardiac tissue with oxygen and other nutrients are called the coronary arteries.
The blood vessels which keep the heart supplied with oxygen and other nutrients are called the coronary arteries.
The coronary arteries nourish the heart.
These are called the coronary arteries.
Veins take blood to the heart, arteries take blood away from the heart.The vessels that carry blood to the heart are called veins. Those that supply the body with blood from the heart are called arteries.Examples are the jugular veins that return blood from the head, and the carotid arteries that supply blood to the head.
The arteries that actually serve the heart itelf are known as coronary arteries.
arteries
Pulmonary arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart. Veins carry blood to the heart.
There are two main arteries that feed the heart. They are called the coronary arteries. These are the arteries that receive bypass surgery. The number of bypasses is determined by the number of blockages, not the number of arteries.
Coronary arteries nourish and provide blood and nutrients to the heart. They are often located at the base of the aorta.

Arteries flow away from the heart. That's a technical answer. Some blood tubes that look like arteries flow into the heat to nourish it. Of interest is the pulmonary artery, the only artery to carry un-oxygenated blood. It carries blood to the lungs where it is oxygenated.
Two coronary arteries branch off of the ascending aorta immediately upon exiting the heart. These two arteries (and their branches) are what nourish the cardiac muscle itself.
AORTA
heart
The largest arteries are closest to the heart, passing blood to smaller arteries, and then again to even smaller arteries, until finally passing blood in a single file line through the capillaries which allow the nutrients and oxygen to seep out and nourish the organs and tissue.
The arteries that actually serve the heart itelf are known as coronary arteries.
arteries
The renal arteries connect the kidney and the heart.
Yes, the heart pumps blood into arteries. Arteries carry blood away from the heart.
The pushing force of the heart is greater in arteries than in veins. The arteries are closer to the heart itself.
