Function of alveolar ducts?
Trap air in lungs (act as air pockets 4 gaseous exchange).

some pockets in your lungs that store air in for brief.They take oxygen in and bring it out as carbon dioxide.
Which cut of offal is commonly know as lights?

What is the aveloli in the lungs a site of?

What happens in the lungs when you breath in air?
The air travels down into your lungs and into small air pockets called capillary The air is then transferred through the capillary as they are really thin. Oxygen from the air is taken in and used around the body and the excess carbon dioxide is breathed back out as t is not needed in the body. You lungs also get bigger as you take a breathe, this creates a larger surface area as the chest goes out. The chest gets smaller as you breathe out as your lungs relax.
What is the function of alveolies?
Avioli are the tiny pockets in your lungs that store air for brief periods to allow time for oxygen to absorbed into the blood-stream.Alveoli OR AIR SACS GAIN CO2 FROM BLOOD AND GIV O2 TOTHE BLOODThe alveoli or air sacs are the terminal openings in our lungs where the actual exchange of gases takes place.They are richly supplied with blood capillaries. Hence respiration (or internal respiration) actually occurs in the alveoli.

Can smoking make you breath slower?
No, if anything it will make you breathe faster because of the limited alveoli in the lungs. the alveoli are air pockets that line the lung walls. If these pockets are to become clogged than they cannot receive oxygen. if they can't receive oxygen than your body will be forced to work harder to gain its air supply.
How do lungs manage to stay expanded?
It is a misconception that the lungs are hollow, like balloons. In fact, our lungs are more sponges. When we inhale we draw air into the little pockets of space and the fibrous tissue absorbs the air through very fine hairs, much like the roots of a flower. The roots are a network of blood vessels carrying oxygen to the rest of the body and expelling co2.
