The Left lung is divided into two lobes, an upper and a lower, by the oblique fissure, which extends from the coastal to the mediastinal surface of the lung both above and below the hilus. It lies above and in front of this fissure, and includes the apex, the anterior border, and a considerable part of the coastal surface and the greater part of the mediastinal surface of the lung.

What region is superior to the lateral sulcus?
The lateral sulcus separates the temporal lobe inferior and the parietal lobe superior.
What cerebral lobe is the auditory cortex?
The visual cortex is located in the occipital lobe. The frontal lobe houses intellect, emotions, behavior and personality, and the parietal lobe houses sensation.
What lobe of the cerebrum has a seat of intelligence and abstract reasoning?
Frontal lobe
What is the front lobe of the pituitary gland called?
anterior lobe
Which part of the body would you find a lobe?
You have ear lobes. The brain is also divided into various lobes: frontal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe, and temporal lobe.
What region is superior to the lateral sulcus?
The lateral sulcus separates the temporal lobe inferior and the parietal lobe superior.
What does the right superior lobe do in the lungs?
The superior lobe helps you breath in the process when the oxygen is inhaled while the carbon dioxide is exhaled.
Which lobe is olfactory cortex?
The olfactory cortex is a part of the superior temporal lobe.
What Lobe is Wernicke's area in?
I believe it is the temporal lobe. Posterior portion of the superior temporal gyrus in the temporal lobe
What is the superior border of the temporal lobe marked by?
lateral sulcus
What cerebral lobe is the auditory cortex?
The visual cortex is located in the occipital lobe. The frontal lobe houses intellect, emotions, behavior and personality, and the parietal lobe houses sensation.
What are each part of your lungs called?

What is the definitions of the right pulmonary vein?
there are two right pulmonary veins right inferior pulmonary vein: the vein returning oxygenated blood from the inferior lobe of the right lung to the left atrium; tributaries include the superior vein and the common basal vein from the right inferior lobe. Syn: vena pulmonalis inferior dextra right superior pulmonary vein the vein returning oxygenated blood from the superior and middle lobes of the right lung to the left atrium; tributaries include apical anterior and posterior veins (branches) from the right superior lobe and the middle lobe vein. Syn: vena pulmonalis superior dextra
How do separate the right and left pulmonary segment?
This is probably what u are looking for but however there is a longer explanation to this which i believe u can get in another place and i wont be typing it here.The Left Lung1. It is slender and divided into superior (upper) and inferior (lower) lobes by a long deep oblique fissurewhich extends from its coastal to medial surface.2. The superior lobe has a large cardiac notch on its anterior border.3. The anteroinferior part of the superior lobe has a small tongue-like projection called the lingula.4. The inferior lobe of the left lung is larger than the superior lobe and lies inferoposterior to the oblique fissure.The Right Lung1. The right lung is shorter and wider than the left lung, because the right dome of the diaphragm is higher and the heart and pericardium bulge more to the left.2. It is divided into superior (upper), middle, and inferior (lower) lobes by horizontal and oblique fissures.3. The horizontal fissure separates the superior and middle lobes.4. The oblique fissure separates the inferior lobefrom the superior and middle lobes.5. The superior lobe is smaller than in the left lung, and the middle lobe is wedge-shaped.6. The anterior margin of the right lung is straight, whereas the margin of the left lung has a deep cardiac notch.
