bypass

Examples of bypass in the following topics:

• Budget Resolutions

  • However, the House can bypass this prohibition after May 15th and the Senate can bypass it by adopting a motion to waive the rule by majority vote.

• Leapfrogging to Tokyo

  • Leapfrogging was the Allied strategy of bypassing and isolating  fortified positions by focusing on strategically important islands.
  • It entailed bypassing and isolating heavily fortified Japanese positions while preparing to take over strategically important islands.
  • Thus, troops on islands which had been bypassed, such as the major base at Rabaul, were useless to the Japanese war effort and left to "wither on the vine."

• Fetal Circulation

  • In the fetus, there is an opening between the right and left atrium (the foramen ovale), and most of the blood flows through this hole directly into the left atrium from the right atrium, thus bypassing pulmonary circulation.
  • These closures prevent blood from bypassing pulmonary circulation, and therefore allow the neonate's blood to become oxygenated in the newly operational lungs.

• Facilitating Private-Voluntary Associations

  • Some parties bypass the judge by jointly sending disputes to an arbitrator, but the courts are always available when less extreme measures fail.

• Compromised Host

  • Invasive devices, for instance intubation tubes, catheters, surgical drains, and tracheostomy tubes all bypass the body's natural lines of defense against pathogens and provide an easy route for infection .

• Attenuation

  • In times of need, the attenuator within the mRNA sequence will be bypassed by the ribosome and proper translation will occur.

• The Complement System

  • The innate immune system serves as a first responder to pathogenic threats that bypass natural physical and chemical barriers of the body.

• Gender

  • In a given society, sexual beliefs, values, and attitudes reflect the accepted norms of that society, and individual feelings and opinions are largely bypassed in the assignment of gender and gender roles.

• Pancreatic Cancer

  • If the malignancy is invading or compressing the duodenum or colon, bypass surgery might overcome the obstruction and improve quality of life but is not intended as a cure.
  • This procedure involves removing the pancreatic head and the curve of the duodenum together, making a bypass for food from stomach to jejunum and attaching a loop of jejunum to the cystic duct to drain bile.

• Cell-Mediated Autoimmune Reactions

  • This requirement of a T cell can be bypassed in rare instances, such as infection by organisms producing super-antigens, which are capable of initiating polyclonal activation of B cells, or even of T cells, by directly binding to the β-subunit of T cell receptors in a non-specific fashion.
