Type 2 alveoli cells secrete surfactant, which helps to reduce surface tension in the alveoli. This allows for easier expansion of the alveoli during inhalation and prevents them from collapsing during exhalation, promoting efficient gas exchange.
These are the Alveoli.
The actual air exchange in the lungs takes place in the alveoli, which are tiny sacs at the end of the bronchioles. Oxygen from the inhaled air passes through the walls of the alveoli and into the bloodstream, while carbon dioxide moves from the blood into the alveoli to be exhaled.
The bronchi branch into smaller tubes called bronchioles, which then lead to clusters of air sacs called alveoli. The alveoli are the site where oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange occurs during the process of respiration.
Type 2 alveolar cells secrete surfactant, a mixture of lipids and proteins that reduces surface tension in the alveoli, preventing them from collapsing. This helps maintain the elasticity of the alveoli and promotes efficient gas exchange in the lungs.
