<h3>What is artery?</h3>
  • The blood channels that carry oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the body's tissues are called arteries.
  • Each artery consists of three layers and is a muscular tube bordered by smooth tissue.
  • The endothelium, a smooth tissue, lines the intima, the inner layer.
  • Blood is transported from your heart through arteries.
  • All body parts have arteries, with the exception of the hair, nails, epidermis, cartilages, and cornea.
  • In the limbs, they run along the flexor surface, where they are less vulnerable to injury, and the larger trunks typically occupy the most protected positions.
  • A conduit that carries blood from the heart to the body's extremities is called an artery.
  • Every artery, with the exception of the pulmonary artery, carries oxygenated blood.
  • The ascending aorta, aortic arch, thoracic aorta, and abdominal aorta are the four divisions of the aorta, which is the biggest artery in the body.
