Consequently, restless legs syndrome can lead to problems associated with sleep deprivation, such as anxiety and depression.
Gas exchange in the lungs takes place between the blood in the capillary network surrounding the alveoli, and the air in the alveoli itself. All of the blood from the right ventricle flows through the pulmonary artery to the capillary network which surrounds the alveoli.as exchange between the air within the alveoli and the pulmonary capillaries occurs by diffusion. The oxygen must first dissolve before passing through the respiratory epithelium.
It is in the alveolar sacs where the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide takes place. It is thin-walled and is rich in capillaries. It is formed by a group or cluster of alveoli, and it is where the alveoli communicate.. Alveoli are composed of epithelial layers and extracellular matrix enclosed in capillaries while alveolar sacs are the distal ends of alveolar ducts. 2. The alveoli sacs are formed by a group or cluster of alveoli, and it is there where they communicate while the alveoli are made up of collagen and elastic fibers.
