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.
Oxygen diffuses from the alveoli of the lungs into the blood. Carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood into the alveoli of the lung where is will be exhaled.
Alveoli, pleura fluid, lung tissue, blood
Lungs do not pump blood. They are the site of gas exchange between capillaries and alveoli.
no
a artery actually move the blood to your lung but th perodic vane helps like a police officer to stop and move the blood
The correct order is:nosetracheamain bronchusbronchi (two) which is part of the lungsbronchioles - tinier than the bronchialveolismall capillaries surround each alveoli and cover each alveoli's surface-- CO2 passes from the alveoli to the venous blood supply; the blood passes O2 to alveoli and into the arterial blood supply
Oxygen
lungs
They're called alveoli, they increase your lung's surface area and operate the exchange of gasses in and out of your blood. hope that helps.
Exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide in the alveoli of the lung, then transfer it to the heart
The alveolus or alveoli (plural).
Oxygen from the air enters the lungs and is then diffused through the alveoli walls into the bloodstream. The oxygen binds to hemoglobin in red blood cells and is transported to body tissues where it is used for cellular respiration.
