Question

If the alveolar partial pressure of O2 increased, what effect would it have on the pulmonary arterioles in that area? A-The pulmonary arterioles would dilate. B-The pulmonary arterioles would constrict. C-An increase in the partial pressure of O2 alone would have no effect on the pulmonary arterioles. D-The rate of diffusion of 02 through the arterioles would decrease. E-The effect on the pulmonary arterioles would depend on the altitude.
