Describe the processes that occur in the alveoli.

True/False - Alveoli have a large surface area that maximizes gas exchange.*1 pointTrueFalse

Which of these facts is true for the bronchioles but not the alveoli?A. large surface areaB. very good blood supplyC. walls are one cell thickD. lined with cilia

Alveoli are small sacs found in the lungs. The alveoli are where oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) are exchanged between the organism and the surrounding air.An alveolus is shown in the image below:Which of the following statements is false about the diffusion that occurs in the alveoli?Carbon dioxide will diffuse from an area of high concentration to where there is a low concentration of oxygen.Oxygen diffuses from an area of high concentration in the alveoli into an area of low concentration in the blood. The oxygen is later used in body cells for respiration.Carbon dioxide moves from an area of high concentration in the bloodstream to an area of low concentration in the alveoli. Carbon dioxide is a waste product from the process respiration.
