these small sacs are known as alveoli
Simply put, the gas exchange occurs in the lungs. More specifically, the blood exchange occurs at the avoli, the "air sacs" in the lungs where the surrounding capillaries can be oxygenated.
The air sacks which provide the surface through which gas exchange occurs are called alveoli.
The exchange of gases occurs at the ends of the airways in the lungs. Here tiny sacs called alveoli connect with tiny blood vessels and here exhaust gas [carbon dioxide] is exchanged for fresh gas [oxygen].
Gas exchange between the body and the environment occurs in the lungs.
Squamous pneumocytes are epithelial cells that line the inside of the aveoli, the tiny sacs in the lungs that allow for gas exchange between air and the blood.
In the pulmonary system, the Alveoli are the small sacs at the end of the bronchioles which are connected to the bronchus. It is within these sacs that gas exchange occurs.
Alveoli. - Megan Teague, NC.
The alveoli are small sacs within the lungs where gas exchange occurs. They are located at the ends of bronchiole branches.

The thin sacs in the lungs where the gas exchange takes place are called aveoli.
Simply put, the gas exchange occurs in the lungs. More specifically, the blood exchange occurs at the avoli, the "air sacs" in the lungs where the surrounding capillaries can be oxygenated.
Alveoli
The function of air sacs (alveoli) is to provide a large surface area for gas exchange
Capillaries are the small tubes closely attached to the alveoli, or air sacs of the lungs. These capillaries are the site of gas exchange.
Oxygen in the lungs and passes through the alveoli, small sacs which allow gas exchange, and enters the blood to be pumped throughout the body.
The gas exchange between carbon dioxide and oxygen occurs.
Alveoli are little air sacs found in bunches (like grapes) at the end of terminal bronchioles. Alveoli are where gas exchange (oxygen goes into blood and carbon dioxide out of blood) happens as they have sufficiently thin walls and suitably large total surface areas for gas exchange to occur.
