In the human gas exchange system, $a$. the lungs and airways are completely collapsed after a forceful exhalation. $b$. the average $P_{O_{2}}$ concentration of air inside the lungs is always lower than that in the air outside the lungs. $c$. the $\mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{O}_{2}}$ of the blood leaving the lungs is greater than the $\mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{O}_{2}}$ of the exhaled air. $d$. the amount of air that is moved per breath during normal, at-rest breathing is termed the total lung capacity. oxygen and carbon dioxide are actively transported across the alveolar and capillary membranes.
