It's a metastatic cancer that probably originated in the lungs.

There are two kinds of lung cancers, primary and secondary.
lung cancer:primary or metastatic primary:small cell carcinoma(25%) or non-small cell carcinoma(75%) non-small cell carcinoma(75%): squamous cell carcinoma(35%), adenocarcinoma(25%), large cell carcinoma(15%)
What does mild apical lung scarring mean from the imaged lung apices?
An obstruction in the right primary bronchus will reduce air flow to the right lung, leading to inefficient oxygen exchange. This could result in lower oxygen levels and altered oxygen dissociation in the right lung compared to the left lung, which receives adequate airflow.
The Respiratory Membrane
Do you mean lung ABCESS? If so, it is a localized infection (pocket) in the lung.

Lung Disease or Respiratory Infections
Yes a primary bronchus carries air toward each lung. After reaching the lungs, the primary bronchi branch off into secondary bronchi which carry the air to the lobes of the lungs, three on the right and two on the left.
Non-small cell lung cancer usually appears in the outer area of the lung. This is the more treatable/survivable of lung cancer because since it is in the periphery it can be excised (taken out) surgically.
