Verified step by step guidance

Understand the concept of internal respiration: Internal respiration refers to the exchange of gases between the blood and the body's tissues.

Identify the location where internal respiration occurs: This process primarily takes place in the capillaries that surround body tissues.

Differentiate between internal and external respiration: External respiration occurs in the lungs, specifically in the alveoli, where oxygen is exchanged with carbon dioxide in the blood.

Consider the function of capillaries: Capillaries are small blood vessels that facilitate the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the blood and tissues.

Conclude that internal respiration is not related to the alveoli, bronchioles, or trachea, as these structures are involved in external respiration and air conduction.
