7. Which features help gas exchange between the alveolus and blood capillaries to take place
efficiently?

Alveolus wall Number of blood


Thickness Condition capillaries

A Thick Moist A few


B Thin Moist Many
C Thick Dry A few
D Thin Dry Many

8. The following statements are about the transportation of oxygen in the human body.

K – Oxyhaemoglobin breaks into oxygen and haemoglobin


L – Oxygen diffuses through alveoli into the blood capillaries
M – Oxygen combines into haemoglobin to form oxyhaemoglobin
N – Oxyhaemoglobin is transported to all parts of the body

Which of the following is the correct sequence of the transportation?


A M, K, L, N
B K, L, M, N
C N, K, L, M
D L, M, N, K

9. Diagram 4 shows the process of gas diffusion in the alveolus. Which statement describes diffusion?

A The concentration of carbon dioxide is higher in the alveolus hence it diffuses into the blood
capillaries.
B The oxygen diffuses in the moist lining of the alveolus wall then it diffuses into the blood
capillaries.
C The concentration of oxygen is lower in the blood capillaries hence it diffuses to combine with
haemoglobin.
D The carbon dioxide diffuses in the moist lining of the alveolus wall before it diffuses into the
blood capillaries.
