Solution

The correct option is A

True


The alveoli in our lungs are small sac-like structures where the exchange of gases takes place. Carbon dioxide in the blood capillary diffuses into the alveoli and is exhaled out. The oxygen in the air that enters the alveoli is taken up by the blood capillary and transported to all parts of the body.
