How are the alveoli designed to maximise the exchange of gases ? |
|
Answer» The alveoli are adapted to make a gas exchange in lungs efficiently. They give the lungs a really, big surface area, they have moist, thin walls and they have a lot of tiny blood vessels called Capillaries. Air is sucked into the lungs and alveoli. When we breathe in the alveoli expand and maximise the exchange of gases. |
