Summary Introduction

To review:

The coronary artery branches that supply the blood to the left ventricle and the reason of extensive supply of the left ventricle of the heart.

Introduction:

Human heart includes two atrium and two ventricles. The oxygenated blood goes to the left atrium from the lungs and from it, the blood passes to the left ventricle, from which it is supplied to the organs of the body through the aorta. The ascending aorta emerges from the heart's left ventricle. It branches into two coronary arteries that supply the oxygenated blood to the heart's muscular tissue (myocardium).
