Which statement is true?

Blood leaves the heart through the aorta and then travels through progressively smaller blood vessels, delivering oxygen to the body’s cells. Coronary veins carry oxygen-poor blood away from the heart muscle, so A is false. The left coronary artery primarily supplies the left side of the heart, and systolic pressure is measured when the heart contracts, not when it rests and refills.
