Which of the following is true about ventilation-perfusion coupling?
Which of the following is true about ventilation-perfusion coupling?
in alveoli where ventilation is inadequate, the partial pressure of oxygen is high
terminal arterioles dilate in areas where the partial pressure of oxygen is low
blood is shifted towards alveoli with low partial pressure of oxygen to enhance oxygen pick-up from lungs
in alveoli where ventilation is maximal, the partial pressure of oxygen is low
terminal arterioles dilate in areas where the partial pressure of oxygen is high
