Answer:
TRUE
Explanation:
In the cardiovascular system, the blood flows from <u>high pressure to low pressure.</u>
In the ventricular ejection phase, when the muscles of the ventricles contract, the<u> pressure gradient in ventricles rises</u>. This increases in the <u>pressure in the ventricles exceeds the pressure in the pulmonary artery </u>and aorta, thus opening pulmonary and aortic valves and ejecting the blood from the heart.

Answer:
The correct answer is option B- pressure within the alveoli.
Explanation:
Intrapulmonary pressure is the pressure within the lungs especially in the alveoli of the lungs so is also known as "intra-alveolar pressure".
This pressure helps in the breathing process as :
1. During inspiration - The thoracic cavity volume increases due to which the intra-pulmonary pressure becomes less than the atmospheric pressure which causes the lungs to inhale about 500 ml of air.
2. During expiration- the thoracic volume decreases which cause the intra-pulmonary pressure larger than atmospheric pressure which causes the lungs to exhale the air.
Thus, option B- pressure within the alveoli is the correct answer.
