How do I trace blood from the ascending aorta to the lower right first molar?
The first thing is to determine what artery provides blood to the lower right first molar. The lower teeth sit in the mandible and are supplied by branches of the The major artery in the mandible supplying the teeth is the inferior alveolar artery, which sends branches to supply the roots of each tooth (including the first molar) in the lower jaw. Next is to find the origin of the inferior alveolar artery and work backwards until we get to the ascending aorta. The inferior alveolar artery is a branch of the internal maxillary artery, which itself is a branch of the external carotid artery. The external carotid artery is a branch of the common carotid artery. So far everything has been symmetrical, so it hasn't mattered whether we specified that the artery was on the right or the left side. But the common carotid arteries behave a little differently. The right common carotid is a branch of the innominate artery, which branches from the aortic arch. The left common carotid artery branches directly from the aortic arch. Since we're concerned with the lower right first molar, we'll work backwards from the right common carotid, innominate artery, and aortic arch. The last bit is just to know that the aortic arch is an extension of the ascending aorta. With that, we're done. Now we just sew the whole thing together, artery by artery, in the reverse order: Ascending aorta -> aortic arch -> innominate artery -> right common carotid artery -> right external carotid artery -> right internal maxillary artery -> right inferior alveolar artery -> branch to lower right first molar.
What is the major artery that supplies blood to the lower part of the leg the calf?
It is called the femoral artery that branches out into 2 tibial arteries and one peroneal artery.
What is the vessel called that branches to form a right common carotid and right subclavian?
The brachiocephalic artery is the first major branch off of the aortic arch, it gives rise to the right internal carotid artery and the right subclavian artery. The brachiocephalic artery is also sometimes called the brachiocephalic trunk, and may also be called the innominate artery.
What major tissue lines body cavity and covers the body external surface?
Epithelial tissues line cavities and cover the body. They are different in their types as the ones that line cavities are covered with a watery fluid (serous). The outer covering is dry.
Major artery serving the tissues external to the skull?
The external carotid artery.
Major artery serving the tissues external the skull?
External Carotiod
What major artery supplies the tissues external to the skull?
The superficial temporal artery supplies most of the head external to the skull. It is a branch of the external carotid artery and itself branches to send blood to the face, forehead and scalp. The other terminal branch of the external carotid, the maxillary artery supplies the deep tissues of the face. The scalp in the back of the head (the occipital area) is supplied by the occipital artery, which is also a branch of the external carotid (but not one of the terminal branches).
Major artery of the skull?
External carotid artery
How does the carotid artery work?
The carotid artery is a major branch closely derived from the aorta; this artery provides the main blood supply to the tissues of the head, including the brain.
What is the major blood vessel that is formed posterior to the submaxillary gland as a result of the union of smaller vessels?
A major blood vessel that is formed just posterior to the submaxillary gland as a result of the union of smaller vessels is external maxillary gland is the submental branch of the Facial artery (off of the External Carotid artery)
