Answer:

The heart cells had not received adequate oxygen supply.

Explanation:

Lactic acid is the result of a fermentation process that is happening in Susan's heart muscle. Fermentation is a process that occurs only in anaerobic environments, that is, environments with absence of oxygen. For this reason, we can conclude that the increased ratio of lactic acid to pyruvic acid in the heart of susan occurred due to the inadequate supply of oxygen to the heart cells.

This is fairly simple.  For her heart cells to have so much carbon dioxide built up, that means her heart cells weren't recieving enough of an oxygen supply.

Sources of oxygen and how the fish in water gets oxygen<br>​
WITCHER [35]

This process requires large volumes of water to pass through absorption surfaces to get enough oxygen into their bodies using their mouths and gills. These body parts work like a pump to keep water moving over the gas absorption surfaces of the gills.
