Question 18

Which set of features makes the alveoli, or tiny air sacs, effective gas-exchange surfaces?

  1. Thick dry walls far from blood vessels
  2. Rigid cartilage rings and no moisture
  3. A large area with thin moist wallsBonne réponse
  4. Muscular walls that actively pump gases

Explication

Numerous alveoli create a large surface, and their thin moist walls place air close to capillary blood for diffusion. Thick dry walls would lengthen the diffusion path and hinder gases from dissolving at the surface.
