What does the External maxillary or facial artery supply blood to?

Entire head
Brain
Lower portion of the face
Kidneys

The correct answer is: Lower portion of the face

The External maxillary or facial artery supplies blood specifically to the lower portion of the face, including structures such as the muscles of facial expression, skin, and subcutaneous tissue. The entire head is supplied with blood by a network of arteries, not just this specific artery. The brain is primarily supplied with blood by the internal carotid arteries, not the external maxillary or facial artery. The kidneys are supplied with blood by the renal arteries, not the external maxillary or facial artery. Therefore, option C is the most accurate and specific answer.
