If the surface area of my lungs were reduced, my ability to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide would be significantly impaired, leading to decreased oxygen availability in my bloodstream. This could result in symptoms like shortness of breath, fatigue, and reduced exercise tolerance. Over time, chronic oxygen deprivation could affect overall health, potentially leading to serious conditions like respiratory failure or heart problems. Overall, a reduced lung surface area would severely impact my respiratory efficiency and overall well-being.

Do blue whale have lungs?

Whales are voluntary breathers, meaning they think about each breath they take. Since they don't have gills, they need to come to the surface to breathe out of the blowholes on top of their head. When the whale comes to the surface, it exhales all the old air in its lungs and then inhales, filling its lungs up to about 90% of their capacity (we only use 15-30% of our lung capacity.) the whale's exhalation is called the "blow," or the "spout."

What is the brachia tree?

I think this is the description of what the tiny air passages in your lungs look like. When casts were first made of the inside structure of the lungs, (of dead people!) they resemble exactly the trunk branches and twigs of a tree. This is the "tree" of tiny pipes that allows the air to reach a huge surface area in the lungs to transfer gases into and out of the blood.


Do sea snakes have gills?

No, sea snakes do not have gills. They have lungs and must come to the surface to breathe air. Sea snakes have evolved to have flattened tails and laterally compressed bodies to help them move efficiently through water.

Why is the internal surface area of the lungs larger than the surface area of the pleura that surrounds it?

Think of it this way: Scrunch up a paper as tightly as you can and wrap it in as little plastic as you can. Notice that the area of the plastic can be smaller than the area of the paper that it is covering. It is due to the various internal alveoli, which are pouches, that the lung has such a large surface area.
