Alveoli are small air sacs in the lungs, as small as a grain of sand. There are billions of these in the lungs, and the purpose of these alveoli are to supply de-oxygenated blood with a supply of oxygen through gas exchange. They are well-equipped to do this, as well. The first reason is because the cappillaries that the alveoli are supplying with oxygen are spread all over the outside of them, meaning there is more surface area to perform gaseous exchange on. The second reason is because the alveoli walls are only one cell thick, meaning the oxygen only has two cells to go through, the alveoli wall, and the capillary wall.

Alveoli are tiny air sacs in the lungs where the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide takes place during the process of breathing. They are surrounded by a network of capillaries where gases are exchanged with the bloodstream.

Gaseous exchange takes place in the alveoli where carbon dioxide from the bloodstream diffuses into the air.
i think its called the ALVEOLI
A septal cell is a type of cell found in the alveoli of the lungs. These cells help to support the structure of the alveoli and are involved in gas exchange during respiration.
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.
The bronchioles branch further into the alveoli in the respiratory system. Alveoli are tiny air sacs where gas exchange occurs between the lungs and the blood.

Alveoli (pulmonis) or just alveoli.
There are hundreds of thousands of alveoli.
Alveoli are expanded chambers of epithelial tissue which form the gas exchange surfaces of the lungs. Multiple alveoli share a common duct forming alveoli sacs.
The actual air exchange in the lungs takes place in the alveoli, which are tiny sacs at the end of the bronchioles. Oxygen from the inhaled air passes through the walls of the alveoli and into the bloodstream, while carbon dioxide moves from the blood into the alveoli to be exhaled.
