The essential cell of the lung?
not sure if this is what you are looking for, but alveoli are grape like clusters that absorb oxygen. Hope it helps!
What are the air sacs in clusters in the lungs?
They are called Alveoli. They act as the primary gas exchange. Their wall is thin, and is surrounded by capillaries. This allows exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the respiratory and circulatory systems.
Why are ct scans used as a diagnoses for emphysema?
To answer this you need to know what emphysema does. The lung has large clusters like grapes of what called alveoli and the grape like clusters add to the surface area and allow for maximum oxygenation. When a person develops emphysema the grape clusters disappear and it becomes more like a latex balloon. Neither the grape clusters or the latex balloons can be seen on plain xrays but are as clear as day on a CT scan.
What vine has small grape like clusters of fruit?
The Grape Vine produces grapes in clusters of fruit.
What terminates in a grape like cluster of respiratory structures?
Grape-like clusters of respiratory structures are called alveoli, found at the end of bronchioles in the lungs. Each alveolus is surrounded by tiny blood vessels where gas exchange occurs, allowing for the intake of oxygen and removal of carbon dioxide from the body.
What is the cell arrangement of staphylococcus aureus?
Staphylococcus aureus is arranged in clusters resembling grape-like structures, which is why it is called a "staphylo" bacterium (from the Greek word for bunches of grapes). This arrangement is known as a "staphylococci" morphology.
What terminate is a grape like cluster of respiratory structures?
"Alveoli"
The tiny air sac in the lung?
These are called alveoli. The singular term is alveolus.
The grape-like clusters of air sacs within the lungs are the?
There are about 300 million alveoli in each of your lungs. These tiny air sacs provide an ideal site for the diffusion of gases into and out of the blood – also known as gaseous exchange.The alveoli have a very large surface area – in fact if all of the alveoli in your lungs were spread out flat they would cover the area of a tennis court.
