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.

Compare the functioning of alveoli in the lungs and nephrons in the kidneys with respect to their structure and functioning?
the alveoli provide a suface where exchange of gases can take place. The walls of the alveoli contain an extensive network of blood vessels.when we breath in, we lift our ribs and flatten our diaphragm,and the chest cavity becomes larger as a result. Because of this,air is sucked into lungs and fills the expanded alveoli.
Dead space volume?
Dead space volume is when some of the inspired air fills the conducting respiratory passageways and never contributes to gas exchange in the alveoli.
What connects the respiratory and circulatory system?
Alveoli
How does pneumonia disrupt homeostasis?
it disrupts homeostasis by putting our body in stress. it fills our alveoli with mucus and our bronchiole is inflamed(not like fire but with mucus). and it shortens breathe. >>>>R(CM)G<<<<
