The job of alveoli?
The tiny sacs within the lungs which allow oxygen and carbon dioxide to move between the lungs and the bloodstream is called alveoli. It is needed by the body to supply oxygen.
How do alveoli work?
The alveoli are located in the lungs. They are used to move carbon dioxide and oxygen between the lungs and the bloodstream.
When oxygen is being carried back to blood cells?
Oxygen is transferred to blood cells in the capillaries around the alveoli. It diffuses from the alveoli into the bloodstream, and to the hemoglobin molecule.
Where in the lungs does gas exchange take place?
In the alveoli (also called air sac) is the capillary-rich sac in the lungs where the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide takes place by diffusion. The oxygen poor blood goes from the right ventricle and into the lungs where the co2 is traded for Oxygen in the alveoli and back through the heart and out to the body.
External respiration refers to the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between?
Alveoli and bloodstream
What are the tiny air sacs called which oxygen and carbon dioxide pass in and out of the bloodstream?
Alveoli
What takes place between the alveoli and capillaries in the lungs?
When you inhale, air fills the alveoli and oxygen passes from the alveoli through a semipermeable membrane and into the capillaries, leading into the bloodstream. During the same process, carbon dioxide is outgassed from the blood to the alveoli When you inhale, air fills the alveoli and oxygen passes from the alveoli through a semipermeable membrane and into the capillaries, leading into the bloodstream.

How does oxygen from the air get into the blood?
oxygen that is inhaled into the lungs is diffused through the small air sacs, called alveoli, into the bloodstream.
What are the tiny air sacs through which oxygen and carbon dioxide pass in and out the bloodstream?
These are called the "alveoli".
What Sacs in lungs that move oxygen to blood?
They are the alveoli.
What happens in the aveoli?
Carbon dioxide diffuses from the capillaries surrounding the alveoli into the lungs where it is exhaled, and oxygen diffuses into the capillaries surrounding the alveoli into the bloodstream where it will circulate throughout the body.
What is the function of the aveoli?
The function of the alveoli is to allow gas exchange with the blood and lungs. It takes in the carbon dioxide and then diffuses it.
