The correct answer is C. Aorta.

Step-by-step explanation

The aorta is the name of the largest and most important blood vessel in the body, its popularity is due to the fact that its main function is to bring oxygenated blood from the heart to all the organs, therefore, life depends on its proper functioning. The extension of these arteries goes from the heart to the extremities. So, the correct answer is C. Aorta.
