Transition of respiratory bronchiole to alveolar ducts

This image shows another example of a respiratory bronchiole branching to forming multiple alveolar ducts. Alveolar ducts consist almost entirely of alveoli, the wall being reduced to knob-like interalveolar septa. Alveolar ducts end as alveolar sacs with alveoli clustered around a central space. 40x
