Yes gas is transferred through the alveolar/capillary membrane in the alveolus. Gas moves from the alveolar air sacs to the pulmonary capillaries.

Which of the following structures is involved in the gas exchange function of the respiratory system?
Trachea, brochi, alveoli,lungs
What is the primary gas exchange site in the respiratory system?
alveoli
What is the elastic unit of the respiratory system where gas exchange occurs?
Alveoli is where gas exchange occurs.
Where in your respiratory system does the exchange of O2 happen?
Gaseous exchange occurs in the alveoli (singular = alveolus) of the lungs.
What parts of the respiratory system function as the main sites of gas exchange?
In the respiratory system, it is the alveoli.In the circulatory system, it's the capillaries.They are similar in that both have walls that are only one cell thick, they are both the thinnest parts of their systems, and they are right next to each other. (They diffuse through to each other.)In the respiratory system it's the Alveoli and in the circulatory system it's the capillaries :D
Where does gas exhange in the vascular system?
The vascular system, or respiratory system, deals with the exchange of oxygen to carbon dioxide. This exchange occurs in the alveoli sacs
What is a primary function of a respiratory system?
Gas exchange
What does much part function in respiratory system?
Your question is unclear. Are you asking what does the most in the respiratory system , then tiny little sacs called the alveoli do.
Where in the respiratory system does gas exhcange occur?
Gas exchange occurs in the alveoli in the respiratory system. The thin-walled structures allow diffusion of gases into and out of the capillaries.
Where does gas exchange occur in the human respiratory system?
Gas exchange does not occur in the respiratory tract, it occurs in the alveoli.
Is the main function of the respiratory system?
The main function of the respiratory system is the exchange of gases. It brings in oxygen and elmiinates carbon dioxide.
The main function of the respiratory system is to?
The main function of the respiratory system is the exchange of gases. It brings in oxygen and elmiinates carbon dioxide.
