Explanation

Gas exchange in birds does not occur in alveoli, which are found in mammals. Instead, it happens in the parabronchi, tiny tubes within the lungs that allow efficient oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange. Air sacs and bronchi serve as air passages but are not the main sites of gas exchange.
