Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The increased permeability seen in acute respiratory distress syndrome increases the fluid accumulation in the alveoli. Alveoli are Small air sacs or cavities in the lung that give the tissue a honeycomb appearance and expand its surface area for the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide. When the alveoli become fluid filled, they collapse, causing the lungs to become stiff.
