The reason why a surfactant is needed is to reduce the surface tension of the water molecules that primarily compose the walls of the alveoli. We used milk and food coloring to represent the water and the gas in the respiratory system. The milk was placed in a petri dish and drops of food coloring were added into the milk at the center

    Bubble Research A bubble is a thin sphere of liquid enclosing air or other gases. A bubble is usually made up of soap, glycerin, and water. The smoothness is created by the water and glycerin absorbs moisture. Bubbles are formed when the soap is added into the solution and is blown out of the bubble device. Naturally, water has a very strong surface tension, which holds the bubble together, and detergent is added to release some of the surface tension, allowing it to be a little more stretchy and

    of the most unique factors of breathing is pulmonary surfactant. Pulmonary Surfactant is an oily fluid that is composed of a mixture of lipids and protein molecules that coats the inner alveolar surface (McKinley, 2016). The internal surface of alveoli is moist, which makes it prone to collapsing because of its high surface tension, pulmonary surfactant keeps the alveoli and lungs from collapsing (McKinley, 2016). The importance of surfactant can be seen in the birth and development of pre-mature
