What is the effect of alveolar radius on the pressure caused by surface tension?
A. Alveolar radius has no effect on the pressure caused by surface tension
B. When the alveoli have half the normal radius (50 instead of 100 micrometers), the pressure is doubled
C. The pressure generated as a result of surface tension in the alveoli is directly proportional to the radius of the alveolus
D. The pressure would calculate to be about 18 centimeters – 4.5 times as great when alveoli radius is halved
