Air sacs and alveoli have a high surface volume to ratio. This basically means that because of their structure / the abundance of them, they are easily able to exchange gases such as the absorption of oxygen.
Basically, the structure of them means there is lots of surface for gases to exchange through, making the process quicker and more efficient.
Hope this helped =)
