The oxygen-rich blood from the heart flows to the largest artery known as ____
A
superior vena cava
B
inferior vena cava
C
coronary artery
D
aorta
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Oxygen-rich blood then flows through the mitral valve (MV) into the left ventricle (LV), or the left lower chamber. The left ventricle (LV) pumps the oxygen-rich blood through the aortic valve (AoV) into the aorta (Ao), the main artery that takes oxygen-rich blood out to the rest of the body.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: The blood vessels that branch off of the aorta bringing oxygen-and nutrient-rich blood to the heart are called coronary arteries. Coronary arteries deliver oxygenated blood to the heart itself, while coronary veins deliver oxygen-and nutrient-poor blood back to the heart via the right atrium.

Detailed explanation-3: -The aorta is the main vessel through which oxygen-rich blood travels from the heart to the rest of the body. It also delivers nutrients and hormones. The aorta’s branches ensure these substances reach internal organs and nearby supporting tissue.
