Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The circulatory system brings de - oxygenated blood (which is carbon - dioxide rich) to the lungs. In the lungs, at the alveoli, carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood in the veins into the alveoli to be exhaled out of the body. Oxygen from the inhaled air in the alveoli diffuses into the blood.

Answer:

B. Carbon dioxide from the veins moves into the alveoli.
