Answer: Coronary circulation or coronary blood vessels.

Explanation: Like any other organs the heart also needs oxygen and nutrients to carry out its function, therefore it has its own vscular system that supplies it with oxygen.

The artoa that supplies oxygenated blood to all the arteries extend into two arteries called the coronary circulation that goes around the heart supplying it with nutrients.
