Background and context

The amount of air present in the alveoli is known as alveolar ventilation. This volume of air can travel both inside and outside of the lungs' alveoli. The exchange of gas between the alveoli and the external environment is known as alveolar ventilation. The process involves oxygen entering the lungs from the atmosphere, followed by carbon dioxide being ejected from the body. On the other hand, alveolar ventilation involves the inhalation of fresh air into the alveoli and the exhalation of an equal volume of alveolar air from the body per minute.
