Is gas exchanged in the pleura?
Gas exchange does not occur in the pleura. The pleura is a membrane that lines the outside of the lungs and inside of the chest cavity. Gas exchange, where oxygen is taken in and carbon dioxide is removed, happens in the alveoli of the lungs.
What is another name for the air sacs?
i think its called the ALVEOLI
What division of the respiratory system exchanges gases with the blood?
The alveoli is the division of the respiratory system where gas exchange with the blood occurs. Oxygen from the inhaled air diffuses into the blood in the capillaries surrounding the alveoli, while carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood into the alveoli to be exhaled.
What is a septal cell?
it is a pale cell that in the septa in lungs between pulmanory alveoli which keep alveoli away from collaposing
Which structure branches further into alveoli?
the bronchiole
What are the alveoli and what happens in them?
the alveoli is happen the blood
Describe what happens in the alveoli sacs?
When we inhale in and out oxygen moves from the alveoli to blood carbon dioxide moves from blood to alveoli.
What happens to carbon dioxide in the blood that flows through the capillaries in the alveoli?
alveoli take co2 from your blood and turns it into gas
Where does the oxygens exchange take place?
It happens in the Alveoli. The Alveoli is a balloonlike air sacs that is found at the end of each end of bronchiole.
What happens when blood passes by alveoli?
blood take oxygen from blood.
What happens to carbon dioxide in the blood when it flows through the capillaries in the alveoli?
The CO2 is diffused back into the alveoli, where, by the diaphragm, is pushed back into the environment by atmospheric pressure.
What happens to the carbon dioxide in blood when it flows through the capillaries in the alveoli?
The CO2 is diffused back into the alveoli, where, by the diaphragm, is pushed back into the environment by atmospheric pressure.
What happens to amount of fresh air entering alveoli when tidal volume declines?
What happens is that the air volume entering the alveoli also decreases. Tidal volume is the quantity of air that enters and leaves the lungs during quiet breathing.
What happens to Carbon dioxide in the blood that flows in the alveoli?
it filters your lungs which causes you to exhale
What connects the respiratory and circulatory system?
