An adult female butterfly is actively flying from flower to flower while feeding on a very hot, sunny day in July. The adult butterfly developed from an egg that was laid late in the season the previous year and it became cold while she was still in the caterpillar stage. The caterpillar entered diapause and then resumed feeding and development the following spring when it became warmer. Before entering diapause, the caterpillar was parasitized by a parasitoid wasp, which laid an egg in the caterpillar’s body, triggering an immune response that eventually killed the egg and allowed the caterpillar to complete its development and metamorphosis into an adult. Based on this scenario, answer the following questions: 4. When the adult butterfly inhales: a. oxygen diffuses across the walls of the alveoli into the hemolymph, which then distributes the oxygen to all tissues. b. oxygen binds with hemoglobin and is then carried throughout the tracheal system to all tissues. c. oxygen binds with agglutinins, is carried to the dorsal vessel, and is then pumped throughout the body. d. oxygen is moved through the tracheal system to the tracheole end cells, where it dissolves in water and then diffuses into the tissues through the tracheoles.
