Small sacs for gas exchange in lings?
Alveoli are the small sacs within the lungs where gas exchange takes place. Oxygen from the air we breathe passes through the alveoli walls into the bloodstream, while carbon dioxide from the blood is removed and exhaled out of the body during respiration.
Breathing mechanism in birds?
Inhaled air passes through the primary bronchus, and most enters the posterior air sacs as well as the lungs. During this passage, air that was in the posterior air sacs moves through the lungs air capillaries so that exchange takes place. During exhalation, the air in the posterior air sacs passes through the lung en route to the external environment. Again exchange goes on during exhalation.

What happens to air after it passes the tracia?

In the bronchioles, the air is distributed to the alveoli, small air sacs in the lungs where oxygen is absorbed into the bloodstream and carbon dioxide is released for exhalation.
How do you get oxygen?
Oxygen is obtained from the atmosphere by a process called Respiration, this involves inhaling air and filling small air sacs in the lung, at which point the oxgen passes into the bloodstream through a process called Diffusion.
