The answer should be C, It diffuses from the alveoli into the blood.


Alveoli, also called the air sac, is the place where the oxygen we breathed in is exchanged with carbon dioxide that our body produces. Oxygen is passed into the blood in the capillaries through the process of diffusion, while carbon dioxide is diffused from the blood back to the alveoli, so that we can exhale the carbon dioxide after that.


Both a and b are not right because when we breathe in, the oxygen travels from the trachea to the bronchi, to the bronchiole, and to the alveoli, instead of directly into blood vessels like arteries, capillaries, or veins. d is also not right because the direction is wrong.


Therefore, your answer should be C.

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

The genetic determination of coat colors in calico cats is linked to the X chromosome wherein calicos are nearly always female, with one coat color  allele linked to the maternal X chromosome and a second coat color allele linked to the paternal X chromosome.

Since, the females possess two X chromosomes (XX), they can be either homozygous for each coat colour or be heterozygote (calico). But in the males, since this trait is X- linked and males have just the one X chromosome (XY), they can only possess either of the coat colour and not be an heterozygote. But an XXY male cat can be a calico due to the presence of the two X chromosomes.
