Parabronchi are open at ______________ end/s?

Correct answer: B. Both

  • A. Single
  • B. Both
  • C. Do not have opening
  • D. None of these

Explanation

Parabronchi are the fine respiratory tubes in bird lungs, and they are open at both ends. Air flows through them continuously, while capillaries around them receive oxygen by cross-current exchange. A student may choose single because many ordinary air passages are described as having one inlet and one outlet without recognising that both ends of a parabronchus are open.
