| alveoli |
The tiny spherical air exchange sacs in the lung, located at the ends of your smallest airways (bronchiole). The alveoli are surrounded by capillaries (small blood vessels), which are the blood vessels bringing blood into interior of the lung that is depleted in oxygen. The exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide takes place through a membrane separating the alveoli and capillaries. The alveoli are lined with and supported by tissue called the interstitium.

| alveoli |
The millions of tiny compartments within the lungs at the ends of the airways. (To imagine the shape, picture bunches of hollow grapes at the ends of hollow stems.) Also called "air sacs." Alveoli are where gas exchange takes place-that is, where the blood picks up oxygen (from the air a person has breathed in) and releases carbon dioxide (to be breathed out). (singular: alveolus).
