Blood goes into lung alveoli

Updated: 12/20/2022

Blood does not go into the alveoli, that would only result from a hemorrhage. Blood does come close to the alveolar sacs via small capillaries that are there to perform an action called gas exchange. This process occurs as a result of diffusion and releases the carbon dioxide in the red blood cells and is replaced by oxygen to be carried to the body tissues and used in tissue respiration.
