    The answer is A. PO2 means the partial pressure of oxygen which is the pressure exerted by an oxygen. Gases diffuse according to their partial pressures. They diffuse from a region of high partial pressure to a region of low partial pressure. In pulmonary exchange, therefore, oxygen with a high partial pressure in the alveoli diffuses into the blood capillaries where PO2 is lower.
