Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Blood travels from the aorta to the left common carotid artery, then to the left external carotid artery, which branches out into the left facial artery. This supplies blood to the zygomatic muscles in the face. The blood then travels back from the zygomatic tissues through the left facial vein, which drains into the left internal jugular vein, left subclavian vein, left brachiocephalic vein, and finally the superior vena cava which leads back to the heart. Option A and B are incorrect as they involve the maxillary vein and artery which do not supply blood to the zygomatic muscles. Option D involves the left brachiocephalic artery, which is not part of the route for blood flow to the face.
