What else can I help you with?
What ducts connects the alveoli to the storage chambers?
Lactiferous Duct
What is a conducting structure in the Lungs?
Respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, and alveoli.
What is the name of the tiny airways inside the lungs that connect to the alveoli?
alveolar ducts
Carry milk from the mammary glands?
This process involves a system of ducts and glands that transport the milk from the mammary glands to the nipple. The milk is produced in the alveoli, then moves through the ducts to reach the nipple for feeding. The release of milk is triggered by oxytocin, which causes the muscle cells around the alveoli to contract and push the milk out.
The respiratory zone of the tracheobronchial tree includes?
The respiratory zone of the tracheobronchial tree includes the respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, alveolar sacs, and alveoli where gas exchange occurs. This is where oxygen is absorbed into the bloodstream and carbon dioxide is released from the bloodstream.
What are air sacs in the lungs where the exchange of gases take place?
Technically yes. However, there are a few more strucutres that thanks to their histological properties can participate in the gas exchange process: respiratory bronchioles, and alveolar ducts.
The bronchi go directly into the alveoli.?
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.
How does the development of alveoli in the breast contribute to the production of breast milk?
The development of alveoli in the breast allows for the production of breast milk. Alveoli are small sacs where milk is produced by specialized cells. When a baby suckles, it triggers the release of hormones that signal the alveoli to release milk into the ducts, which then flows out of the nipple for the baby to feed on.
Where in the ECU are the flexible air ducts stored when not in use?
Flexible air ducts in the ECU are typically stored in the ceiling cavity or in a dedicated storage compartment within the unit when not in use. This helps to maintain a tidy and organized appearance while also protecting the ducts from damage.
Where does gas exchange occur between the lungs and blood?
An alveolus (plural: alveoli, from Latin alveolus, "little cavity") is an anatomical structure that has the form of a hollow cavity. Found in the lung parenchyma, the pulmonary alveoli are the dead ends of the respiratory tree, which outcrop from either alveolar sacs or alveolar ducts, which are both sites of gas exchange with the blood as well.
What is the smallest functioning unit of breast?
The smallest functioning unit of the breast is the lobule, which is made up of clusters of milk-producing cells called alveoli. These alveoli are surrounded by ducts that transport milk to the nipple during breastfeeding.
Are storage areas free from pipes ventilation ducts and water lines?
Not always. Many double as "riser" access to fire sprinkler systems.
