Detailed explanation-1: -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: -The aorta carries oxygen-rich blood to the body from the left ventricle.
Detailed explanation-3: -Pulmonary artery carries oxygenated blood from lungs to the heart.
Detailed explanation-4: -Large arteries receive the highest pressure of blood flow and are thicker and more elastic to accommodate the high pressures.
Detailed explanation-5: -The heart receives its own supply of blood from a network of arteries, called the coronary arteries. Two major coronary arteries branch off from the aorta near the point where the aorta and the left ventricle meet: The right coronary artery supplies the right atrium and right ventricle with blood.
