Which of the following is considered the structural and basic functional unit of the lung that is responsible for the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide during respiration?
a. Bronchioles
b. Lungs
c. Bronchus
d. Alveoli
The structures in the passageways of the lung which become paralyzed in the early stages of chronic bronchitis so they cannot sweep out contaminants are the:
A. Cilia
B. Helper T's
C. capillaries
D. alveoli
What type of epithelium lines the gas exchange surfaces of the alveoli?
a. pseudostratified columnar epithelium
b. ciliated columnar epithelium
c. simple squamous epithelium
d. simple cuboidal epithelium
I believe that it is pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium but that is not an option so I don't know what one to choose.
