What else can I help you with?
What is the general region of the lung were gaseous exchange occurs?
The avioli
What part of the lung do oxygen molecules diffuse across into the bloodstream?
Oxygen molecules diffuse across the alveolar membrane in the lungs into the bloodstream. This is where gas exchange occurs, with oxygen moving from the alveoli into capillaries surrounding the alveoli.
What is the site for gas exchange?
the organ that is involved in gas exchange is the lung. the specific lung structure that is the site for gas exchange is the alveolus which is part of the alveoli, which is found in the lung.
Tiny psacs where gas exchange occurs?
The alveoli are the final branchings of the respiratory tree and act as the primary gas exchange units of the lung.
What connection between alveolus and visceral pleura?
The aveoli are microscopic pockets in the lung where gas exchange occurs. The visceral pleura is a membrane that covers the entire lung. There is no connection except that they both involve the anatomy of the lung.
Does carbon dioxide leave your blood in your lungs?
yes it does leave our blood and comes out through the lungs (breathing out)
Why do lung have air sacs?
For oxygen exchange
What is the principal site of gas exchange in the lung?
They are the alveoli.
Cellular respiration were does it occur?
it occurs in the lung
What are epithelial lung cells well suited for?
gas exchange
What is the respiratory organ in a worm?
Spiracle, or a respiratory tube
How does angina affect the circulatory system?
Lung cancer reduces lung function (just before it kills you). The reduced lung function means there would be less gas exchange taking place, which means less oxygen getting to the body.
