What is the function of the blood vessels on the outer wall of the heart?
Nutrients and oxygen have to get to the outside of the heart. So the blood vessels on the outside have that job. The nutrients and oxygen can't get to the cardiac muscle from inside the heart. Blood vessels that lead from the heart that are high in oxygen and nutrients have their first branch off the aorta that goes to these blood vessels. That's how important these vessels are to the heart and how it functions.

More specifically, they are tubes through which the blood circulates in the body. Blood vessels include a network of arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules, and veins. The arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to the cells, tissues and organs and then branch into arterioles that are smaller arteries that carry blood to the capillaries (minute vessels that permeate tissues). Blood is then carried to the venules (small veins) which join together to form veins, which return blood to the heart.
