B) The parietal and visceral pleura are continuous.
T/F Henry's law of partial pressures states that when a gas is in contact with a liquid, that gas will dissolve in the liquid in proportion to its partial pressure.
T/F The lungs are perfused by two circulations: the pulmonary and the bronchial. The pulmonary circulation is for oxygenation of blood. The bronchial circulation supplies blood to the lung structures (tissue) T.
D) The thickness of the respiratory membrane is not important in the efficiency of gas exchange.
