The function of the alveoli is to get oxygen into the blood stream for transport to the tissues, and to remove carbon dioxide from the blood stream. In the lungs, air is diverted into smaller and smaller microscopic branches called respiratory bronchioles, which connect to the alveolar ducts.
The structure of the alveoli is that there are blood vessels wrapping around them. Then, oxygenin from the alveoli can enter the blood. The blood will give oxygen to all the body's tissues, and later, in the alveoli, carbon dioxide or CO2 can leave the blood and be exhaled.
