Answer

Carotid Artery is present on either sides of neck

Step-by-step explanation

To supply the oxygenated blood to the head and neck portion of the body, the Carotid arteries perform their functions which are located on both sides of the neck. Common carotid artery arises directly from the aorta on the left and as a branch of the brachiocephalic trunk on the right. They divide in the neck to form the external and internal carotid arteries. The internal arteries supply the blood to the brain and external plays role for the face and neck portion.
