Answer: Blood clot in the coronary arteries( arteries of the heart), called Coronary thrombosis is caused mostly by deposits and build up of low density cholesterol, fibrous tissues, and inflammatory cells. on the walls of the artery. Smoking, sedentary life style(lack of exercise),and hypertension are other causes..
Obesity is another causative condition for coronary thrombosis.
These deposits and build up coalesces in different parts of the coronary arteries; to form structures called plaques. The latter may break down at this arterial segments which leads top formation of blood clot. (thrombosis)
The clot results in the blockage of the arteries that supplies the affected site, with blood containing oxygen and nutrients. This leads to tissue hypoxia(lack of oxygen) to the cardiac muscles cells of the myocardium and therefore myocardial infraction.(HEART ATTACK)
In some cases these clots are pumped out of the heart to the cerebral arteries, due to proximity of the brain to the heart. In this case this can lead to stroke,
