D. The lungs are deflated, oxygen concentration is low, and carbon dioxide concentration is high in the alveoli.

My Answer - B or D

Answer 8

I only need help with one more question that I just posted if you were able to help me that would be great

Answer 9

Just to add my two cents' worth, I think the question is not clearly stated. I think it makes a difference WHEN. If this is at the START of the inhalation phase you have one answer or if it is at the END of the inhalation phase you have another answer.
