What happens between alveoli and capillaries? Be specific.

The oxygen contained in the alveoli passes according to the concentration gradient inside the venous capillaries through the alveolocapillary membrane. Conversely, carbon dioxide goes from the arterial capillaries inside the alveoli to be eliminated outside through exhalation.

one of the most common forms of pain or discomfort we feel during strenuous exercise is a burning sensation in our lungs or muscles that goes away shortly after we cease the activity. this is caused by a build-up of lactic acid.

the oxygenated blood then leaves the lungs through pulmonary veins, which return it to the left heart, completing the pulmonary cycle. this blood then enters the left atrium, which pumps it through the mitral valve into the left ventricle. from the left ventricle, the blood passes through the aortic valve to the aorta.

deoxygenated blood leaves through the right ventricle through the pulmonary artery. from the right atrium, the blood is pumped through the tricuspid valve (or right atrioventricular valve), into the right ventricle.
