Heart & Blood Vessels: Your Coronary Arteries. The heart receives its own supply of blood from the coronary arteries. Two major coronary arteries branch off from the aorta near the point where the aorta and the left ventricle meet. These arteries and their branches supply all parts of the heart muscle with blood. Left Main Coronary Artery (also called the left main trunk)
Carotid arteries are located on each side of the neck, just below the jaw line. They supply blood to the anterior (front) brain where sensory and motor function as well as speech, vision, personality and thinking reside. Two smaller arteries -- the vertebral arteries -- supply blood to the back of the brain, the cerebellum and brainstem.
