Great arterial way (5)
I believe the answer is:
aorta
'great arterial way' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how one could define the other.
This is the entire clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for aorta that I've seen before include "vital transporter" , "it's drawing blood!" , "Main artery of body" , "Blood-carrier from a heart" , "Blood carrier" .)
