If arterial blood entering the lung has pCO 2 = 46 mmHg & alveolar air has pCO 2 = 40 mmHg then A. CO 2 will move out of blood into the alveoli B. CO 2 will move out of alveoli into the blood C. blood leaving the alveoli will have pCO 2 = 43 mmHg D. there will be an increase in the concentration of carbonic acid in the blood
Option A. If arterial blood entering the lung has pCO 2 = 46 mmHg & alveolar air has pCO 2 = 40 mmHg then CO2 will move out of blood into the alveoli.
