Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Option B, may allow bypass of a blocked coronary artery.

In coronary artery disease, the coronary arteries narrow down leading to blockage and stopping the flow of blood in the muscles of heart.  

In this condition, the collateral circulatory network allows flow of blood around and within the blocked artery thereby protecting heart tissue from injury
