Accepted Answer

The hepatic portal vein delivers blood from the organs of the digestive system (such as the stomach, intestines, and pancreas) to the liver, where nutrients and toxins can be processed and distributed throughout the body. The carotid artery delivers blood to the head and neck, the mesenteric artery supplies blood to the intestines, and the basilar artery supplies blood to the brainstem and cerebellum.
