The heart is a muscle that pumps blood and causes the blood to circulate throughout the body. It is the most hardworking muscle in the human body.
The heart is made up of an intricate web of blood vessels (coronary arteries) that ensure an adequate supply of blood rich in oxygen and nutrients.
Every organ has a blood supply that arrives in an artery, and departs in a vein. All organs depend on a blood supply.
Of course heart muscles need a blood supply for the cellular respiratory process as the blood carries the final electron acceptor oxygen which is key to oxidative phosphorylation in humans.
When blood supply to the heart is blocked what happens is a myocardial infarction which can result in death.
The arteries that originate from the arcuate arteries and supply blood to the renal cortex are called interlobular arteries. These arteries branch off from the arcuate arteries, which run along the boundary between the renal cortex and medulla, and then extend into the cortex, providing oxygenated blood to the nephron structures within.
The motor speech area, specifically Broca's area, is primarily supplied by branches of the middle cerebral artery, such as the superior division of the middle cerebral artery. Interruption of blood supply to this area can lead to expressive aphasia, or difficulty with speech production.
The primary blood supply to the intestines comes from the three branches from the abdominal aorta. These include the celiac artery and the superior and inferior mesenteric arteries.
The extent of the postcentral gyrus affected after a stroke depends on the size and location of the stroke. If a stroke damages the blood supply to the postcentral gyrus, it can result in sensory deficits on the opposite side of the body. The percentage of the postcentral gyrus affected can vary from a small area to a larger portion depending on the severity of the stroke.
A blood clot in any part of the brain can result in a stroke. It may also cause local damage, reducing or removing the ability to hear properly.
The cortex of the kidney appears darker than the medulla due to its higher density of blood vessels and renal corpuscles, which contain glomeruli and Bowman’s capsules. This greater concentration of structures involved in filtration and blood supply gives the cortex a richer color. In contrast, the medulla primarily consists of renal tubules and collecting ducts, which have fewer blood vessels and a lighter appearance. Additionally, the arrangement and type of tissues in these regions contribute to the difference in coloration.
To filter the blood
Renal columns are extensions of the renal cortex that project into the renal medulla of the kidney. They serve to provide support and structural organization to the kidney by dividing it into distinct renal pyramids. Additionally, renal columns contain blood vessels and interlobar arteries that supply blood to the nephrons.
Technically, it supplies both at the same time, however, you could argue that the common carotid artieries (the main vessels supplying your head) reach the medulla first. Mainly because the whole cortex takes longer to be vascularized, however, we are probably talking milliseconds here. Also, the medulla receives blood vessels from the vertebral arteries, which are a branch of the subclavian artery, which is a more direct root. Hope this helps!
The aorta. This is the primary artery in your body that branches off into the many small arteries that supply nutrients to your whole body.
Surgical removal of the involved segment of colon (colectomy) along with its blood supply and regional lymph nodes is the primary therapy for colon cancer.
The primary blood supply to the diaphysis of a long bone is through the nutrient artery, which enters the bone through the nutrient foramen. This artery provides blood to the medullary cavity and inner portions of the bone.
