Blood containing carbon dioxide enters the capillaries lining the alveoli. The gas moves from the blood across a thin film of moisture and into the air sac. The carbon dioxide is then breathed out. On inhalation, oxygen is drawn into the alveoli, where it passes into the blood using the same film of moisture. How do the lungs stay inflated? Each lung is ribbed with cartilage to prevent collapse on exhalation The lungs are tethered to the ribcage with a network of connective tissue. The lungs rely on a vacuum within the chest, maintained by the diaphragm. The lungs are made of muscular tissue that expands and contracts.
