Gas exchange • Only 10 % of the lungs is occupied by solid tissue. • The rest if filled with air and blood. • The lungs are sheer and asymmetrical. • Each minute the heart pumps the entire blood volume of the body through the lungs. • Gas exchange takes 0.25 seconds. Alveoli • Clustered like grapes • Intertwined with blood vessels • As breathing increases the air pressure inside each sac, the natural tendency of molecules is to move from areas of ____ concentration to ______ which sends oxygen into the blood while evacuating poisonous CO2.
