Question
Chapter 20, Problem 16CP
Summary Introduction
To review:
Whether the amount of blood flowing through the coronary artery during ventricular diastole or ventricular systole is more or less.
Introduction:
Apart from the pulmonary and systemic circular, coronary circulation also takes place, which supplies blood to different regions of heart. The vessels that supply blood to the myocardium are a part of the coronary circulation. The oxygenated blood from the aorta in the left atrium is picked up by two coronary arteries, each entering into the left and right atrium.
