The air sacs in your body, known as alveoli, hold oxygen-rich air that is essential for respiration. When you inhale, oxygen from the air enters the alveoli and diffuses into the bloodstream, while carbon dioxide from the blood is expelled into the alveoli to be exhaled. This exchange of gases is crucial for providing oxygen to your body's cells and removing waste gases.
