The air sacs (alveoli) have a very large total surface area and a very good blood supply. There is an exchange of gases between the air sacs and their surrounding capillary blood vessels. Oxygen diffuses from the air sac into the blood. Carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood into the air sac.

System that exchanges oxygen?

The respiratory system exchanges oxygen by inhaling air through the nose or mouth, where oxygen is taken into the lungs and absorbed into the bloodstream. Carbon dioxide, a waste product, is then expelled by exhaling air out of the lungs. This exchange occurs in the alveoli, tiny air sacs in the lungs where the transfer of gases takes place.
