Final answer:
The root operation for resection of the ascending colon to stop post-procedural bleeding is 'Control,' not 'Resection.' The cecum is the part of the large intestine that attaches to the appendix. Option b.
Step-by-step explanation:
When resection of the portion of the ascending colon is performed to stop post-procedural bleeding, the root operation is Control. This is because the primary objective of the procedure is to stop the bleeding, rather than to remove a portion of the colon. Resection, on the other hand, would be the correct root operation if the entire colon segment was removed primarily for a reason other than bleeding, such as disease.
Regarding the question about the large intestine, the part of the large intestine that attaches to the appendix is the cecum. This is important for understanding the layout and function of the digestive system. Option b.
