Alveoli are small, thin-walled, very fragile air sacs that are grouped together at the ends of the bronchial tubes at the bottom of the lungs. There are about 300 million alveoli in normal lungs. During inspiration, the alveolar membrane stretches, sucking in oxygen and transporting it into the bloodstream. During inspiration, the alveolar membrane contracts and expels carbon dioxide from the body.
