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.

How do the structures of the alveoli and capillaries support the function of gas exchange?
Alveoli are found within the lungs. The alveoli act as a specialised gaseous exchange surface in mammals. Another function of alveoli is the production of surfactant.

Where does the oxygens exchange take place?
It happens in the Alveoli. The Alveoli is a balloonlike air sacs that is found at the end of each end of bronchiole.
What are the names of the tiny air sacs at the end of the bronchioles?

In a standing person the alveoli located at the base of the lung are better ventilated in liters per minute than the alveoli found at the apex of the lung?
True
Why are capillaries found in alveoli nephrons and villi?
Wherever capillaries are found, these are places where nutrients and wastes are exchanged.
What are small air sacs in your lungs?
Alveoli, (from Latin alveoli, "little cavities") are an anatomical structure which have the form of hollow cavities. Found in the lung, the pulmonary alveoli are spherical extensions of the respiratory bronchioles (small air passages leading off the windpipe) and are the primary sites of gas exchange with the blood. Alveoli are only found in the lungs of mammals.
What connects the respiratory and circulatory system?
Alveoli
Can you found alveolar in the inner ear?
Alveoli can be found in the lung. They are tiny sacs where gas exchange occurs. Alveoli are the boney sockets where teeth are found. There doesn't appear that there is any connect between the ones in the lungs and the ones in the jaw. There is no connection with aveoli and the ear.
