The carotid arch gives off forwards a lin- gual artery to the muscles of the tongue and hyoid, and then becomes the common carotid artery which bears Fig. 30.—A diagram of the arterial system of a round swelling the frog, seen from the ventral side.— due to the fact that From Thomson. it here breaks UD ^r'> Subclavian or brachial; c,common carotid; , . * coeliaco-mesenteric ; cutaneous artery ; intO a number Of hasmorrhoidal ; il., common iliacs ; £., left kidney; small vpscpIs whirVi l-< Ungual artery; A, pulmonary; *-., renal; s., small vGaacio w 1111,11 systemic arch; t., right testis; 71., occipito-verte- reunite.
