 ===Alveoli===
-Alveoli are minute, polygonal chambers, whose diameter changes with the processes of [[Ventilation - Anatomy & Physiology#Inspiration|inspiration]] and [[Ventilation - Anatomy & Physiology#Expiration|expiration]], and varies by species. The wall of the alveoli is extremely thin, consisting of 2 irregular layers of epithelial sheets, 'sandwiching' a network of capillaries. Thus the ''Blood-Gas Barrier'' is just a single basal lamina - ideal for [[Gas Exchange - Anatomy & Physiology|gaseous exchange]]. The alveolar interstitium is formed from connective tissue fibres and cells, which include collagen fibrils and elastin fibres.

The wall of the alveoli is extremely thin, consisting of 2 irregular layers of epithelial sheets, 'sandwiching' a network of capillaries. Thus the ''Blood-Gas Barrier'' at the thinnest portions is a tripartite structure consisting of  the pulmonary capillary endothelium, a common basal lamina and the alveolar epithelium- ideal for [[Gas Exchange - Anatomy & Physiology|gaseous exchange]]. The alveolar interstitium is formed from connective tissue fibres and cells, which include collagen fibrils and elastin fibres.

		+	'''Pneumocytes''' are a type of epithelial cells that lines the alveoli.
		+	*the '''Type I''' pneumocytes are simple squamous with a flattened central nucleus that protrudes into the alveolar lume
		+	*the '''Type II''' pneumocytes are round to pyramidal-shaped cells that are found among the type I pneumocytes. The type II pneumocytes have a larger centrally placed nucleus with a prominent nucleolus and a slightly vacuolated, foamy, basophilic cytoplasm. The nucleus of these cells also has a nucleolus.
