What else can I help you with?
What is the role of fluid between the lung and chest wall in maintaining respiratory function?
The fluid between the lung and chest wall helps the lungs expand and contract smoothly during breathing. It acts as a lubricant, reducing friction and allowing the lungs to move easily within the chest cavity. This fluid also helps maintain the pressure balance between the lungs and chest wall, which is important for efficient breathing.
What part of the snake's lung is used for breathing?
The snake's lung which is responsible for their breathing is called the "Vestigial lung."
What is the explanation for the diaphragms role in breathing?
that breathing is the lung you has inside
What does the right lung and left lung do in animals?
what it does is to work on the body breathing
Stomach is to digestion as lung is to?
breathing
Which animal not using lung for breathing?
fishes do not use their lungs for breathing
If you remove fluid from one lung does the fluid from the other lung move back into the space?
no
How would an object blocking a bronchus affect this airflow?
An object blocking a bronchus would disrupt the airflow to a portion of the lung, leading to decreased air exchange in that area. This obstruction can result in symptoms such as difficulty breathing, coughing, and potentially a collapsed lung if not promptly addressed.
What area does the right pleural cavity surround?
The right pleural cavity surrounds the right lung. It is the space between the lungs and the chest wall, containing a thin layer of fluid that helps reduce friction during breathing.
Which fluid is filled in foetus lungs at 8th month?
At around the 8th month of gestation, the lungs of the fetus are filled with a fluid called amniotic fluid. This fluid is crucial for lung development and helps prepare the fetus for breathing air after birth. The lungs also begin producing surfactant, a substance that reduces surface tension and prevents the alveoli from collapsing, which is essential for proper breathing once the baby is born.
What is the lung capacity of a goat?
The lungs are the organs used in breathing. It is not known what the lung capacity of a pig is.
What is intrapleural fluid?
Intrapleural fluid is a lubricating fluid found in the pleural cavity, the space between the visceral and parietal pleura surrounding the lungs. This fluid reduces friction between the lung surfaces and the chest wall during breathing, allowing smooth expansion and contraction of the lungs. It also helps maintain negative pressure within the pleural cavity, which is essential for proper lung inflation. Abnormal accumulation of this fluid can lead to conditions such as pleural effusion.
