Best Answer

Aveloli are the structures within the lungs, at the terminal end of bronchioles. They are not blood vessels. Aveoli resemble a cluster of grapes hanging off the smallest branches of a tree, with the tree upside down. The main bronchus in the upper chest is like the tree trunk, the bronchi branch and thin to bronchioles, then end at the aveoli. There O2 and CO2 exchange takes place.
