Which veins which supply blood to heart?

Answer 1

The coronary arteries (veins always take blood away from the heart) supply the heart with blood.

The term "cornary circulation" refers to the network of arteries that supply oxygen- and nutrient-rich blood to the surface of the heart. The heart is supplied with blood by two main vessels, the left and right coronary arteries, which enter through coronary ostia located near the aortic valves and run along the surface.

The veins that supply blood to the heart are the coronary veins. They drain deoxygenated blood from the myocardium (heart muscle) and transport it back to the right atrium of the heart. The major coronary veins include the great cardiac vein, middle cardiac vein, small cardiac vein, and the coronary sinus.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
