Examine this diagram of the human heart. what is the structure indicated by the arrow?

I unfortunately can't post a picture because I am uploading this question from my computer but I will do my best to describe the image.
It's a normal picture of a human heart, but there is an artery going down and there is an artery going to the right, I need the name of the artery going to the right because that is what the arrow is pointing at.

A. The Pulmonary Artery
B. The Pulmonary Vein
C. The Superior Vena Cava
D. The Aorta

Answer:

Right coronary artery

Step-by-step explanation:

Right coronary artery (RCA). The right coronary artery supplies blood to the right ventricle, the right atrium, and the SA (sinoatrial) and AV (atrioventricular) nodes, which regulate the heart rhythm.
