Gas exchange:
Between air and capillaries in the lungs.
Between systemic capillaries and tissues of the
body.

Respiratory Zone
Alveoli
Air sacs
Honeycomb-like clusters
~ 300 million.
Large surface area (60–80 m2).
Each alveolus: only 1 thin cell layer.
Total air barrier is 2 cells across (2 m) (alveolar
cell and capillary endothelial cell).

Thoracic Cavity
Diaphragm:
Sheets of striated muscle divides anterior body
cavity into 2 parts.

Mechanics of breathing
Gas: the more volume, the less pressure (Boyle’s law).
Inspiration:
lung volume increase ->
decrease in intrapulmonary pressure, to just below
atmospheric pressure ->
air goes in!
Expiration: viceversa

Mechanics of breathing
Intrapleural space:
“Space” between visceral and parietal
pleurae.
Visceral and parietal pleurae (membranes) are
flush against each other.
Lungs normally remain in contact with the chest
walls.
Lungs expand and contract along with the
thoracic cavity.

proteins).
