| alveolar-arterial oxygen difference | The difference or gradient between the partial pressure of oxygen in the alveolar spaces and the arterial blood: P(A-a)02. Normally in young adults this value is less than 20 mm Hg. See: alveolar gas equation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alveolate | Pitted or honeycombed on the surface. (09 Oct 1997) |
| alveolectomy | Subtotal or complete excision of the alveolar process of the maxilla or mandible. (12 Dec 1998) |
| alveoli | A small cell containing air in the lungs, a sac-like dilation of the alveolar ducts in the lung (plural: alveoli) (27 Sep 1997) |
| alveoli pulmonis | One of the thin-walled saclike terminal dilations of the respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, and alveolar sacs across which gas exchange occurs between alveolar air and the pulmonary capillaries. Synonym: alveoli pulmonis, alveolus, air cells, air vesicles, bronchic cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alveolingual | Relating to the lingual (inner) surface of the alveolar process of the lower jaw. Synonym: alveolingual. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alveolitis | <pathology> Inflammation of an alveolus. Synonym: odontobothritis. (18 Nov 1997) |
| alveolitis, extrinsic allergic | Conditions in which inhalation of organic dusts results in hypersensitivity reactions at the alveolar level, associated with the production of precipitins. (12 Dec 1998) |
| alveolo- | An alveolus, the alveolar process; alveolar. Origin: L. Alveolus, a concave vessel, a bowl, a basin, fr. Alveus, a trough, + -olus, small, little; akin to alvus, the belly, the womb (05 Mar 2000) |

| alveolobuccal sulcus | The upper and lower half of the buccal vestibule on each side. Synonym: alveolobuccal sulcus, gingivobuccal groove, gingivobuccal sulcus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alveolocapillary block | The presence of material that impairs the diffusion of gases between the air in the alveolar spaces and the blood in alveolar capillaries; block can be caused by oedema, cellular infiltration, fibrosis, or tumour, and results in undersaturation of peripheral arterial blood with oxygen. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alveolocapillary membrane | The pulmonary diffusion barrier. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alveoloclasia | Destruction of the alveolus. Origin: alveolo-+ G. Klasis, breaking (05 Mar 2000) |
| alveolate |
The alveolates are a major line of protists. There are three main groups, which are very divergent in form, but are now known to be close relatives based on various ultrastructural and genetic similarities: The most notable shared characteristic is the presence of cortical alveoli, flattened vesicles packed into a continuous layer supporting the membrane, typically forming a flexible pellicle. In dinoflagellates they often form armor plates. ...

| alveolo- |
Alveolar consonants are articulated with the tongue against or close to the superior alveolar ridge, which is called that because it contains the alveoli (the sockets) of the superior teeth. Alveolar consonants may be articulated with the tip of the tongue (so-called apical consonants), as in English, or with the flat of the tongue just above the tip (the "blade" of the tongue; called laminal consonants), as in French and Spanish. ...

| alveolopalatal |
In phonetics, alveolo-palatal consonants are a subtype of postalveolar fricative articulated with the blade of the tongue between the alveolar ridge and the palate. They are similar to palato-alveolar and retroflex fricatives, but are laminal rather than apical or sub-apical as the retroflex fricatives are, or pronounced with the tongue bunched up ("domed") as the palato-alveolar fricatives are. ...
