What are found in the Respiratory system for gas exchange?

  1. Bronchi

  2. Veins

  3. Alveoli

  4. Arteries

The correct answer is: Alveoli

The respiratory system is a group of organs and structures that work together to provide our bodies with oxygen and remove carbon dioxide. Within this system, gas exchange occurs in the alveoli, which are small air sacs located in the lungs. The bronchi and arteries are responsible for carrying air and blood, respectively, to and from the alveoli. Veins, on the other hand, are not directly involved in gas exchange, but rather transport blood back to the heart. Therefore, option C - alveoli - is the only correct choice as it is specifically responsible for gas exchange.
