<u>ANSWER:</u>

The correct option is B: Alveoli. Gas exchange of "carbon dioxide and oxygen" takes place in the "alveoli" of the lungs.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • Alveoli are present in the alveolar sacs located at the end of respiratory bronchioles. Alveoli have thin walls and look like bubbles in the sacs.
  • These also are in "direct contact" with the blood capillaries. This contact ensures that "oxygen" is released into the blood capillaries by the alveoli directly.

Grasslands are _______.
dmitriy555 [2]
<span>The grasslands typically lie in the middle of large lanmasses, or the interior of continents, where rivers are most likely to flow far away from seawater sources. Here the ever present value of water can be seen, as it supplies the source of life to all the plants and animals in the ecosystem in a lush and relatively cushy environment when compared to the biomes like the desert or savannah.</span>
