All else being equal, lung capacity is a function of the volume of space enclosed by the rib cage, which is essential to the lungs' ability to inflate. Males, with their larger frames, tend to have larger rib cages.
Lung capacity should not be confused with aerobic capacity, the ability of the body to acquire and efficiently use oxygen. That is a function more of physical conditioning than gender -- again, with all else being equal.
Males lungs ARE bigger than females typically, due to differences in average body size. Larger individuals simply need larger lungs!
Men have a higher total lung capacity because they are generally taller, broader and with deeper chests than women.
Typically boys have more lung capacity than girls will have. This of course changes if one of them trains especially in music or sports.
Males have a larger lung capacity because they are larger and stronger in most cases.
On average - yes.
Lung size is related to total body size to bigger people usually have bigger lungs.
boys have a larger lung capascity
girls
There are only two lungs for both men and women. == I think you mean lung volume or capacity -- meaning how much air can be inhaled. Men have a larger lung capacity than women.
Men have larger lung capacities than women. Tall people also have larger lung capacities than short people. It is said that people aged 20-25 have larger lung capacities than other age groups, Its because by the time you have reached your twenties your lungs have reached their full capacity, but when you are a kid then your lungs aren't fully developed so they don't have a large capacity. From when you are 20 your lung capacity starts going down so an old man has about the same lung capacity as a very small boy.
Several studies have confirmed excessive rates of lung cancer among men with radiographic asbestosis. Participants with asbestos related pleural changes had a 44% higher risk of getting lung cancer.
Vital capacity. It is around 4800ml in healthy young men.

We have known for a long time that the survival rate for men with lung cancer is lower than it is for women. On the other hand, the good news is the death rate for lung cancer in men (unlike women) has been dropping in recent years.
The incidence of lung cancer can vary between men and women. Historically, lung cancer has been more commonly associated with men, particularly due to higher rates of smoking among men in past decades. However, the trend has been changing, and the gap between lung cancer rates in men and women has been narrowing. As to recent statistics, the American Cancer Society provides the following estimates for new lung cancer cases in the United States: Men: About 59% of new lung cancer cases are diagnosed in men. Women: Approximately 41% of new lung cancer cases are diagnosed in women. These numbers reflect a significant decrease in the gender disparity compared to previous years, largely attributed to changes in smoking patterns. While smoking remains a leading risk factor for lung cancer, other factors such as exposure to secondhand smoke, environmental pollutants, and genetic factors also play a role in lung cancer development. It's important to note that these percentages can vary by region and population demographics, but overall, lung cancer is a significant health concern for both men and women. Early detection through screening programs and adopting healthy lifestyle choices can help reduce the risk of lung cancer and improve outcomes for those affected by the disease.
Only men played the flute along time ago because it was not respectable for women too. Also men have a higher air capacity and can take bigger breaths therefor being better at playing.
No. The leading cause of death for men is heart attack/disease.
Lung Cancer
No. The leading cause of death for men is heart attack/disease.
Yes. Lung cancer is the main cause of cancer death in Western countries, for both men and women.
