Which outcome results when avian air capillaries increase gas volume, leading to differential pressure?

💡 Explanation

Increased air capillary gas volume drives efficient oxygen uptake via increased differential pressure which enables countercurrent exchange between the blood and air because oxygenation is faster than diffusion rather than heat dissipation being dominant.
