ESSAY

1. Mr. Melbourne has emphysema and has been admitted to the cardiac care unit with oxygen
administered per nasal cannula. Emphysema destroys the tiny air sacs in the lungs, reducing
the diffusion of oxygen into the blood. These tiny air sacs, alveoli, are formed by what type of
tissue? What tissue type will form in place of the now damaged alveoli, and why will this
impair the diffusion process?
