If alveolar walls become thick and surface area decreases why can energy production in the body fall?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Diffusion of oxygen into blood will decrease
Step 1: Gas exchange occurs in alveoli. Step 2: Thick walls and low surface area slow oxygen entry. Step 3: Less oxygen reduces aerobic respiration and energy production.
