WHY ARE Lungs are made up of millions of alveoli?
Lungs are made up of millions of alveoli to maximize surface area for gas exchange. Alveoli are tiny, balloon-like structures that facilitate the diffusion of oxygen into the bloodstream and the removal of carbon dioxide. This large surface area, combined with their thin walls, allows for efficient oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide release, which is essential for effective respiration. The vast number of alveoli ensures that the lungs can meet the body’s oxygen demands during various activities.
