Alveoli are tiny sacs in the lungs that perform gas exchange. That is the main process of respiration where the body gets rid of carbon dioxide and picks up oxygen which is used in metabolism. They have supply of oxygenated and de-oxygenated blood surrounding their surface giving them a high blood supply. They also have thin walls and a moist surface. This is all required for them to work correctly.
What else can I help you with?
What is a functions of alveoli in speech organ?
it help in the exchange of o2 in blood capillary and co2 from blood capillary into alveolus
What connects the respiratory and circulatory system?
Alveoli
Do cells of alveoli or lungs also require oxygen to carry cellular respiration?
Yes, the cells of the alveoli and lungs require oxygen to carry out cellular respiration. Although the primary function of alveoli is gas exchange, the cells that make up the alveoli and surrounding lung tissue rely on oxygen to produce energy through aerobic respiration. This process is essential for maintaining cellular functions and overall lung health.

How many alveoli do cheetahs have?

What about alveoli?
Alveoli are expanded chambers of epithelial tissue which form the gas exchange surfaces of the lungs. Multiple alveoli share a common duct forming alveoli sacs.
