    Alveoli is the place where gas exchange happens between the air taken from your nose to the bloodstream.

    Less number of alveoli = less efficient gas exchange = less oxygen reached to your cells for respiration/energy = more faster you body has to work to give the required amount of oxygen to your cells = more breaths per minute = more distress
