Emphyesma is when alveoli die.
how does it affect them...
Well it would affect them like it affects every other cell in the body.
(decreased O2)
but it acually doesnt affect the alveoli
it just happens
when they die

It causes them to shrivel up and your lungs cant distribute oxygen correctly or as much.
it causes Chronic Respiratory Acidosis
It reduces the surface area because it reduces the number of alveolar sacs in a persons lungs.
NO, emphysema cannot be solely blamed on a person's lifestyle. Emphysema is caused by any of a number of lung irritants, which affect the alveoli and trigger the production of excess phlegm.
The general knowledge history about emphysema is doctors guessed that it was connected to smoking. However, after the 1970s, researchers understood that emphysema is caused by any number of lung irritants that affect the lungs, especially the alveoli.
Emphysema is the breakdown of alveoli.

Destruction of alveoli reduces the surface area for gas exchange
False, its permanenst enlargment of the alveoli.

There is no cure for emphysema. The alveoli become damaged; they collapse so gas exchange is reduced.
