Alveoli are made up of single cell layered epithelium which is provided with blood capillaries.so it is the respiratory area part where diffusion takes place.
where as the trachea, bronchi and broncioles have multilayered walls without capillary network.So these tubes are only air conducting parts where diffusion does not occur.
