Question

if the volume of the alveoli increased, the pressure would decrease. true or false true false

Explanation:

Boyle's Law states that for a given amount of gas at a constant temperature, pressure and volume are inversely related ($P_1V_1 = P_2V_2$). When the volume of alveoli (which contain air, a gas mixture) increases, according to this law, the pressure inside them would decrease. This principle is fundamental in understanding breathing mechanics (e.g., during inhalation, alveolar volume increases and internal pressure drops below atmospheric pressure to draw in air).

Answer:

True
