The heart is responsible for circulating blood through the body, and the lungs are responsible for oxygenating it. Both are needed to get the much needed oxygen to the cells of the body.
Your lungs are around the area of your chest.
Fish and worms have hearts, no lungs. So does a deck of cards.
Blood that flows from the lungs to the heart is oxygenated, so it's bright red. In contrast, blood that flows from the heart to the lungs is deoxygenated, and so is dark red.
Medial basically refers to being in the middle. Lateral basically refers to on or at the sides. The lungs are located on either side of the heart, so they are lateral to the heart.
The heart sends "used" blood to your lungs so that the blood can reabsorb oxygen there. There are no weasels in the lungs.
First, they're an organ in your body. Second, your lungs help you breathe and your heart keeps your body going. Without them, you wouldn't be able to live. So the similarity of the lungs and the heart is that it helps you live, or rather you need these to live.
no, not so much. The heart is nestled in the left lung, however there is plenty of room to remove the heart without removing the lungs.
The heart and lungs are so close together because the lungs have oxygen that are pumped into the heart so it can go into the blood stream. The lungs don't have blood but they transmit oxygen to the heart for the blood stream.
The heart pumps the blood that takes carbon dioxide to the lungs. So, the heart is a necessary element, but isn't the one effectively doing it.
