Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Blockage of a coronary artery can lead to reduced blood flow and oxygen to the heart muscle, causing a heart attack. Strokes are caused by blockages in the vessels leading to the brain, not the coronary arteries. Fainting is not directly caused by coronary artery blockages. Edema is a condition caused by excess fluid buildup in the tissues and is not directly linked to coronary artery blockages. Anemia is a condition caused by a lack of red blood cells or hemoglobin and is also not directly related to coronary artery blockages.
