    This document contains a biology worksheet about gas exchange. It includes 10 multiple choice questions about the structures and processes involved in breathing and gas exchange in the lungs. It also includes two longer answer questions about labeling the structures of the gas exchange system on a diagram and describing features of alveoli that help with gas exchange. The worksheet tests knowledge of the respiratory system, including the roles of the trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli and capillaries in oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange between the lungs and blood.

    Topic : Gas exchange Name :

    Circle the correct answer.


    1. The diagram shows some structures in the human thorax (chest). Into which part does
    carbon dioxide pass immediately after leaving the blood?

    2. The diagrams show alveoli from the lungs. Which one will allow oxygen to diffuse into
    the blood most rapidly?

    3. What describes the oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in blood as it passes through the
    lungs?

    4. Which structures in the human breathing system contain goblet cells and cilia?
    a. alveoli and bronchi
    b. alveoli and pleural membranes
    c. bronchi and trachea
    d. pleural membranes and trachea

    5. The diagram shows a section through part of a lung.


    Worksheet 2 BBI-17

    What is structure X?
    a. alveolus
    b. bronchus
    c. pleural membrane
    d. trachea
    6. The diagram shows an alveolus and one of its capillaries.

    What moves in the direction shown by the arrows?


    a. carbon dioxide
    b. hydrogen
    c. oxygen
    d. water
    7. The diagram shows the main structures in the breathing system.

    Which row identifies the larynx, bronchus, trachea and bronchioles?

    8. How do goblet cells and cilia help to keep the lungs free from infection?
    Worksheet 2 BBI-17

    9. What causes oxygen to diffuse into the blood from an alveolus in the lungs?
    a. The oxygen concentration in the alveolus is higher than in the atmosphere.
    b. The oxygen concentration in the alveolus is lower than in the blood.
    c. The oxygen concentration in the atmosphere is higher than the carbon dioxide
    concentration.
    d. The oxygen concentration in the blood is lower than in the alveolus.
    10. Which gives these structures in order of their increasing diameter?
    a. bronchi → bronchioles → trachea
    b. bronchi → trachea → bronchioles
    c. bronchioles → bronchi → trachea
    d. trachea → bronchi → bronchioles
