The main sources of blood to the head, face, and neck are supplied by the:

  1. Jugular veins

  2. Temporal arteries

  3. Aorta

  4. Common carotid arteries

The correct answer is: Common carotid arteries

The head, face, and neck are supplied with blood primarily by the common carotid arteries, which branch off the aorta. The jugular veins are responsible for draining blood from the head, face, and neck, not supplying it with oxygen-rich blood. The temporal arteries are a smaller branch of the common carotid arteries and do not supply the majority of blood to these areas. The aorta is responsible for supplying blood to the rest of the body, but not specifically to the head, face, and neck regions. Therefore, the correct answer is D.
