The alveoli are tiny air sacs in the lungs where oxygen is taken in and carbon dioxide is released during the process of breathing. They are responsible for the exchange of gases between the lungs and the bloodstream, allowing oxygen to enter the body and carbon dioxide to be removed.
The major parts of the respiratory system include the lungs, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, and alveoli. The lungs are the primary organ where gas exchange occurs, the trachea and bronchi function to transport air to and from the lungs, and the bronchioles help regulate airflow. The alveoli are responsible for oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange in the bloodstream.
The respiratory system is responsible for exchanging gases between the blood and the environment. This process occurs in the alveoli of the lungs, where oxygen is taken up by the blood and carbon dioxide is released from the blood to be exhaled.
alveoli in the lungs, where it passes through the thin walls of the capillaries surrounding the alveoli to enter the bloodstream. This process is driven by a concentration gradient, with oxygen moving from an area of high concentration in the alveoli to an area of lower concentration in the blood.
A typical flow chart for the respiratory system would include steps such as inhalation of air through the nose or mouth, passage through the trachea, branching into bronchi, reaching the alveoli in the lungs for gas exchange, and finally exhalation of carbon dioxide. This flow chart would capture the overall process of respiratory system function.
The system that exchanges oxygen and carbon dioxide between blood and air is the respiratory system. This process occurs in the lungs, where oxygen is taken in from the air we breathe and carbon dioxide is released from the blood into the air we exhale.
Your question is unclear. Are you asking what does the most in the respiratory system , then tiny little sacs called the alveoli do.
Alveoli
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.
Lungs

Alveoli
The alveoli are the structures in the respiratory system that are involved in the gas exchange function. They are tiny air sacs located at the end of the bronchioles in the lungs where oxygen from the air is taken up by the blood and carbon dioxide is released from the blood into the lungs to be exhaled.
Your lungs, the diaphragm, alveoli, bronchi, and capillaries are all in the respiratory system
