Atherosclerosis may affect blood supply in any part of the body, but it is most dangerous when it affects​

A) ​veins in the extremities.
B) ​arteries in the extremities.
C) ​any veins.

Atherosclerosis in the coronary arteries can lead to severe blockages and reduced blood flow to the heart, leading to serious complications such as heart attack and heart failure.
