Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The aorta (the main artery in your body) carries the blood from the left side of your heart to the rest of your body through many branches of arteries. Capillaries have thin walls that allow oxygen, nutrients, carbon dioxide and waste products to pass through, to and from the tissue cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Coronary arteries supply blood to the heart muscle. Like all other tissues in the body, the heart muscle needs oxygen-rich blood to function. Also, oxygen-depleted blood must be carried away. The coronary arteries wrap around the outside of the heart.
