Circulation and Respiration

Question 5 • *GV 2018 - P.E. Health Science Concepts - PE361

Where does oxygen from the air get absorbed into the blood?

Answer
A
in the alveoli
B
in the arteries
C
in the veins
D
in the heart

Explanation

Oxygen moves from the air in the lungs into nearby blood through the thin walls of the alveoli, the tiny air sacs in the lungs. The arteries, veins, and heart carry or pump blood; they are not where oxygen enters the blood from inhaled air. So the correct choice is in the alveoli.
