In the science fiction movie The Abyss, a diver is able to breathe while his head is in a specially prepared liquid pumped into a water-tight helmet attached to a suit, thus allowing him to dive without an air tank and at greater depths than possible for scuba divers. Is this purely fiction, or is it at least theoretically possible? Explain, thinking about the characteristics of alveoli and alveolar gas exchange. Assuming it is possible, describe the characteristics of the liquid in terms of its oxygen pressure and concentration.
