alveolus

In an average human lung, there are 480 million alveoli.

The surface area of your alveoli is about the same as a tennis court.

In the alveoli, oxygen from the air is absorbed into the blood.

"Based on the hydrostatic test, air made it to the alveoli."

At the transition into the respiratory zone, alveoli become present.

These are the result of alveoli opening due to increased air pressure during inspiration.

This disease is an inflammation of the alveoli in the lungs.

Alveoli absorb oxygen and then transfer it into the blood.

There are estimated to be about 20 to 23 divisions, ending up at an alveolus.

There are two empty alveoli, so that the total tooth count on one side was at least 15.

It is usually lost at an early age, leaving no trace of the alveolus in the jaw.

Therefore, oxygen leaves the alveolus and enters the red blood cells.

They are formed from the confluence openings of several alveoli.

This allows gases to diffuse, or move across, the surface of the alveolus.

Inside the alveoli is where a Gas exchange occurs.

For example lungs are less conductive when the alveoli is filled with air.

Pulmonary alveolus for a discussion of gas pressure in the lung.

As the children grow, they must exercise to release mucus in the alveoli.

Oxygen from the inhaled air passes through the alveoli walls and into the blood.

Emphysema results from damage to the fragile connections between alveoli.

As it is, several hundred alveoli are re-built in your lungs every day.

The fewer such interfaces around an alveolus, the lesser the stress.

Larvae enter the alveoli, are coughed up and then swallowed.

This relationship allows for greater inflation of the alveoli during respiration.

In humans it is the movement of air from the external environment, through the airways, and into the alveoli.
