- Respiratory system of Humans - BYJUS
The alveoli are single-celled sacs of air with thin walls It facilitates the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide molecules into or away from the bloodstream
- Type 1 Pneumocytes - BYJUS
The type 1 cells are involved in gaseous exchange between the alveoli and capillaries The thinness of these cells allows fast diffusion of gases The type 1 cells cannot replicate at the time of toxicity, so the type 2 cells differentiate to form type 1 cells, and compensate for the damage Type 2 Pneumocytes
- Presentation - Byjus
Bronchioles eventually terminate into alveoli Alveoli are small sac-like structures that swell when air enters them Alveoli are in close contact with the blood capillaries Hence, alveoli are sites where the gaseous exchange between blood and lungs occurs
- Breathing and Exchange of Gases - BYJUS
Further reading: Pharynx Location Bronchioles form many bag-like structures terminally, which are known as alveoli Alveoli and alveolar ducts together take part in the exchange of gases Bronchi, bronchioles and alveoli together constitute a lung Each lung is covered by the pleural membrane
- BYJUS

(a) Alveoli (b) Pharynx (c) Larynx (d) Trachea Sol (a) Alveoli 2 ___________ is located between two pleural sacs and is the central compartment of the thoracic cavity? (a) Hilum (b) Pleura (c) Mediastinum (d) Thoracic cage Sol (c) Mediastinum 3 Which of the following statements is true about involuntary breathing
- Terminal Bronchioles - BYJUS
Respiratory Bronchioles The respiratory zone consists of the respiratory bronchioles, alveoli and alveolar ducts It is the main site for the exchange of O 2 and CO 2 with the blood The alveolar ducts and the respiratory bronchioles are together responsible for around 10% of gas exchange The remaining 90% is taken care of by the alveoli

NCERT Solutions for Class 11 Biology Chapter 17 – Breathing and Exchange of Gases Respiration is an essential life process carried out by all living entities The process of exchange of oxygen from the atmosphere with carbon dioxide that is produced by the cells is termed as breathing, which is commonly known as respiration The chapter provides students with insights into the mechanism of
- Respiratory system in Humans - BYJUS
Alveoli Each bronchiole ends in spongy, tiny sacs – alveoli; each of the individual sacs is referred to as alveolus Each alveolus fills with air when a person inhales Together, the bronchi, bronchioles and alveoli constitute the bronchial tree The alveoli are surrounded by tiny blood vessels referred to as capillaries
