When intrapulmonary pressure drops below atmospheric pressure what is able to occur?

When intrapulmonary pressure drops below atmospheric pressure, air rushes into the lungs, causing inhalation or inspiration to occur. This process facilitates the exchange of gases in the alveoli of the lungs, allowing oxygen to enter the bloodstream and carbon dioxide to be removed.


When intraalveolar pressure exceeds atmospheric pressure what happens?

If intraalveolar pressure exceeds atmospheric pressure, air will flow out of the lungs due to the pressure gradient. This process is known as exhalation or expiration. It allows the lungs to get rid of carbon dioxide and regulate the levels of gases in the body.
