| surfactant |
a detergent secreted by Type 2 alveolar cells between alveolar epithelium. Functions to lower surface tension, allowing lungs to remain inflated. Note: In humans, these cells and their secretion develop towards the very end of the third trimester, just before birth. Hence the respiratory difficulties associated with premature births. (More?

| surface tension |
The attractive forces between water molecules creates what is called surface tension. Surface tension creates a strong boundary between the air and water, which allows some insects to walk on water and keeps water from evaporating too quickly.
