You did not specify which artery. If it is one supplying the heart, it will affect the heart's efficiency. If it becomes completely clogged, part of the heart muscle will die unless the blockage is relieved.

If it is an artery to a limb or organ, the heart will have to work harder, and the amount of blood it can push through the artery will slowly become lessened. Eventually, there will be problems at the other end, and perhaps with the heart as well.

Acute myocardial ischemia happens when the coronary artery gets blocked. As a result the blood and the oxygen supply to the heart reduces and the heart muscles can not work properly. This means heart fails to pump efficiently leading to a cardiac arrest.

The blood always flows through the blood vessels in a certain way and how does the blood flow through the blood vessels once it leaves the heart?

It always flows the same way. It leaves the heart through the Aorta. This is the largest artery in the body. The blood then branches off into progressively smaller arteries until it gets to the tissues. It enters the capillaries at the cell level and then moves into the veins. The reverse process then happens where the blood enters progressively larger arteries until it gets back to the heart where it starts the journey all over again.
