Answered by GPT 3.5
The alveoli perform the function of gas exchange in the respiratory system. Oxygen from inhaled air diffuses into the bloodstream and carbon dioxide, a waste product, diffuses out of the bloodstream into the alveoli to be exhaled.

The function of the alveoli is to facilitate the exchange of gases (specifically oxygen and carbon dioxide) between the respiratory system and the bloodstream.
Answered by GPT 3.5
Carbon dioxide is primarily found in the bloodstream. It is produced as a waste product during cellular respiration and is transported through the bloodstream to the lungs. In the alveoli, carbon dioxide diffuses from the bloodstream into the lungs to be exhaled. However, there is also a small amount of carbon dioxide present in the air due to human respiration and other sources.
