Question

multiple choice question
the facial, maxillary, and occipital arteries all originate from which artery?
o the subclavian artery
o the external carotid artery
o the internal carotid artery
o the common carotid artery

Explanation:

In human anatomy, the facial, maxillary, and occipital arteries are branches of the external carotid artery. The subclavian artery supplies blood to the upper limb and some neck - related structures. The internal carotid artery mainly supplies the brain. The common carotid artery divides into the internal and external carotid arteries, but the specific arteries in question branch from the external carotid artery, not the common carotid artery directly.

Answer:

The external carotid artery
