Question

simple diffusion
true/false: exchange of oxygen with carbon dioxide occurring in the lungs is an example of simple diffusion.
true
false

Explanation:

In the lungs, oxygen and carbon - dioxide exchange occurs through simple diffusion. Oxygen moves from an area of high concentration (in the alveoli) to an area of low concentration (in the blood), and carbon - dioxide moves from an area of high concentration (in the blood) to an area of low concentration (in the alveoli) across the respiratory membrane without the need for energy or a carrier protein.

Answer:

True
