Question

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The aorta is the main artery of the body. The ascending aorta gives off the right and left coronary arteries. The aortic arch is a continuation of the ascending aorta. After the aortic arch, the aorta continues as the descending aorta. The aortic sinuses are dilations at the root of the ascending aorta. The pulmonary trunk is part of the pulmonary circulation (carrying de - oxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs), while the aorta is part of the systemic circulation (carrying oxygenated blood from the heart to the body).

Answer:

Descending aorta
