What is the y-shaped part in your respiratory system?
alveoli
What body system is the alveoli part of?
Respiratory. They are the air sacs in your lungs.
How are alveoli and bronchi related?
Bronchioles are part of the respiratory system and branch from the bronchus. Air from the bronchus enters the terminal bronchioles that terminate in air sacs known as alveoli.
What is the meaning of Respiratory System and its part?
The RESPIRATORY SYSTEM is how you breath, so your; trachea, lungs, alveoli etc hope this helped!
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.
What is the function of a pulmonary arteriole?
a pulmonary artieriole is part of the respiratory system. inside the respiratory system is an organ called alveoli and the alveoli are covered in a network of capillary. the job of the pulmonary arteriole is to carry deoxygenated blood into the capillary network.
What system is the trachea bronchi and alveoli part of?
This system is called the respiratory system. It exchanges oxygen that the cells need to make energy for carbon dioxide which is a waste product that the cells make.
Which part of the lower respiratory tract is intimately in contact with the cardiovascular system?
The lungs are intimately in contact with the cardiovascular system. The alveoli in the lungs is where gas exchange occurs from the cardiovascular system and the respiratory system.
When gases are exchanged between the alveoli and blood what body systems are involved?
The respiratory and circulatory systems are involved in the exchange of gases between the alveoli and blood. The alveoli are part of the lungs, and their surrounding capillaries are part of the circulatory system.
Which part of the respiratory system exchanges oxygen and carbon dioxide?
The capillaries surrounding the alveoli at the ends of the bronchioles in 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
Which part of the respiratory system divides into smaller and similar tubes in a pattern that resembles the branches of a tree?
trachea --> bronchi -->bronchioles --> alveoli
