In the lungs, is carbon dioxide more concentrated in the alveoli or in the blood?
Carbon dioxide is always carried in the blood. During expiration it is released in alveoli.
Blood always contains carbon dioxide, which is released from it during expiration into alveolar air. Gas laws govern the transportation of oxygen and carbon dioxide, with respiratory gases moving from higher concentrations to lower concentrations in alveolar air.
