In computer networks and telecommunications, a dedicated line is a communications connection or other hardware resource dedicated to a certain application or use. This is different than a shared connection such as a telephone network or the Internet.
Carbon dioxide, a waste product of metabolism, travels from the blood to the alveoli, where it can be exhaled. Between the alveoli is a thin layer of cells called the interstitium, which contains blood vessels and cells that help support the alveoli. The lungs are covered by a thin tissue layer called the pleura. The same kind of thin tissue lines the inside of the chest cavity -- also called pleura. A thin layer of fluid acts as a lubricant allowing the lungs to slip smoothly as they expand and contract with each breath.
The connective tissue is the tissue that holds the air sacs together. Interstitial lung disease happens when the lung parenchyma is damaged in some way and inflammation occurs. Changes in the parenchyma and connective tissue happen when the inflammation is chronic.
