Why is supplemental oxygen indicate when acute alveolar inflammation is superimposed on chronic interstitial lung disease?
A) Diffusion is indirectly related to thickness of the a-c membrane and directly related to the pressure gradient (P1-P2) so diffusion will be enhanced with supplemental O2
B) Diffusion is indirectly related to thickness of the a-c membrane and indirectly related to the pressure gradient (P1-P2) so diffusion will be enhanced with supplemental O2
C) Diffusion is directly related to thickness of the a-c membrane and indirectly related to the pressure gradient (P1-P2) so diffusion will be enhanced with supplemental O2
D) Diffusion is directly related to thickness of the a-c membrane and directly related to the pressure gradient (P1-P2) so diffusion will be enhanced with supplemental O2
