How can the steeper concentration gradient maintained in the lungs?
(1) Continuous blood supply to the lungs.
(2) Dense network of capillaries surrounding the air sac.
(3) The capillaries are very close to the alveoli.
(4) Oxygen combines with haemoglobin.
A. (1) and (2) only
B. (1) and (4) only
C. (1), (2) and (3) only
D. (1), (2) and (4) only
答案點解唔係D, 而係B?
Thanks!!!

That means the dense network of capillaries just increase surface area for gaseous exchange. Right? If I think The dense network surrounding air sac or air sacs, the blood carries away the gas (oxygen) rapidly. Therefore, it can maintain the steeper concentration gradient. Is it correct??
