surfactant
The fluid lining the inner alveolar membrane is called surfactant. It helps reduce the surface tension in the alveoli, which prevents them from collapsing in on themselves every time we exhale.
i think its called the ALVEOLI
A mixture of lipoproteins is called surfactants. They acts to reduce the tendency of alveoli to collapse. Only a thin film of lubricating serous fluid separates the parietal pleura from the visceral pleura of a lung.
The tubes that connect the bronchi with the alveoli are the bronchioles.
Crackles: Fine crackling or bubbling sounds, commonly heard during inspiration when there is fluid in the alveoli; also called rales.
Pneumonia is when fluid collects in the alveoli

These are called alveoli. The singular term is alveolus.
