Species range in size from the hefty Common Raven (Corvus corax), at 1.5 kg (3 lb 5 oz) and 70 cm (2 ft 3 in), to the diminutive Short-tailed Pygmy Tyrant (Myiornis ecaudatus), at just 4.2 g (0.14 oz) and 6.5 cm (2 Â½ in).
The heart receives its own supply of blood from the coronary arteries. Two major coronary arteries branch off from the aorta near the point where the aorta and the left ventricle meet. These arteries and their branches supply all parts of the heart muscle with blood.hen the coronary arteries narrow to the point that blood flow to the heart muscle is limited (coronary artery disease), collateral vessels may enlarge and become active.
The right coronary artery proceeds along the coronary sulcus and distributes blood to the right atrium, portions of both ventricles, and the heart conduction system. Normally, one or more marginal arteries arise from the right coronary artery inferior to the right atrium.oronary arteries supply blood to the myocardium and other components of the heart. Two coronary arteries originate from the left side of the heart at the beginning (root) of the aorta, just after the aorta exits the left ventricle.
