Answer:

Off-pump coronary artery bypass

Explanation:

In this heart bypass surgery a vein or artery from another part of the body is taken and used as a graft to replace the blocked coronary artery. The benefit of this type of surgery is that there is negligible chances of rejection of the graft because the graft has been taken from the same body. A surgical cut is made inside leg, between the ankle and groin and one end of the graft is attached to coronary artery whereas the other end to the opening of aorta.

Radial artery of wrist is also common graft in heart bypass surgery.

What is the fate of pyruvate in the cytoplasm when oxygen is absent ​
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Pyruvate is turned to lactate via a process called fermentation

Explanation:

Pyruvate is the product of the initial stage of cellular respiration called GLYCOLYSIS. Pyruvate is produced in the cytoplasm where glycolysis occurs. The fate of pyruvate i.e. what will eventually happen to pyruvate, is determined by the presence or absence of oxygen.

In the absence of oxygen i.e. anaerobic condition, pyruvate is converted into lactate in a process called FERMENTATION. The NADH produced during glycolysis is reoxidized to form NAD+ in the process.
