How would damage to the left bundle branch affect blood flow in the systemic circulation?
Why is blood flow to the brain relatively continuous and constant?
A blockage in the right internal carotid does not necessarily cause a loss of blood supply to the brain. (a) Identify the area of the brain supplied by the right internal carotid, and name the vessels that would supply blood to this area if there is a blockage in the right internal carotid artery. (b) Is a thrombus in the external carotid life-threatening? Why or why not?
