The blood that leaves the right side of the heart is passed into the pulmonary arteries. This blood is oxygenated in the lungs and passes through the pulmonary veins into the left side of the heart.
Your lungs do not hold the heart. Heart is placed in the mediastinum between both the lungs. Two third part of the heart is on the left side of plane that passes from mid-line. So heart has more impression on the left lung as compared to right lung.
it is down town to the left take one more left then a left one more time then a right then do a u turn and take a right and then walla u is there it is called yo mama ugly!
= Being larger than the right ventricle the left ventricle pumps more blood in each beat?" =
The right main bronchus is wider, shorter, and more vertical than the left. The left main bronchus is smaller in caliber,but 5 cm longer than the left bronchus.
The right lung contains three lobes. The left lobe only has two. Because of the heart on the left side, the left lung only has two lobes to make more room for the heart to pump on that side.
A cat has 7 lobes of the lung. The right side has 3; the right apical, right cardiac, and right diaphragmatic. The left also has 3; the left apical, left cardiac, and left diaphragmatic. There is one lobe directly in between both sides called the intermediate lobe.
The Left lung is smaller and has only two lobes, but the right lung is bigger and has three lobes also has less room because youe heart is located on your left side so thats why it is smaller and lighter.
Each lung has more than one "lobe" or section. The right lung has three, and the left lung has only two to leave room for the heart where the upper left lobe would be.
The left lung only has 2 lobes (superior and inferior) because the heart takes up much of the space allowed on the left side. The right lung; however, has 3 lobes (Superior, Middle, and Inferior). Yes. The left lung is a little less voluminous than the right lung. It has two lobes, whereas the right lung has three. Its volume is displaced a bit more, by the location of the heart, than the right lung.
There are two lungs simply called the left and right lungs. These large structures take up most of the Thoracic Cavity which changes tize in order to pull air in or push it out of the lung. The right lung has three Lobes (parts that sit on top of each other) While the left lung has only 2. This is because the left ventricle of the heart sits over to the left and takes up some of the space the left lung would otherwise inhabit. The left lung has a curved gap for the heart called the Cardiac Notch.because the heart is there
No because the lungs are slightly different in size. The left lung is smaller and has two lobes. The right lung is larger and has three lobes. This difference is mainly due to the heart occupying more space on left side of the thoracic cavity.
You can tell if its a right lung or not simply by looking at two structures. The right lung has three lobes and the left only two. Also, the heart is more towards the left side of the body so there is a bigger "indent" on the left lung.
Answer they hold about 6 leters of airthey are about 10-14 inches. They have to fill up your entire rib cage.
it depends which lung you are talking about. On the mediastinal suface right lung there is imprints from the superior vena cava and diaphragm and in the left is the arch of the aorta. Both have cardiac impression more notable on left lung.
There is no middle lobe on the left lung and the right lung is shorter than the left lung.Differences between Left & Right LungsRight LungLeft LungHeavier (625 gram)Lighter 565 (gram)Shorter & wider due to upwardcompression by liverLonger & narrower due to sidecompression by heartHas oblique & horizontal fissureHas only horizontal fissureConsists of 3 lobes: Upper,middle & lowerConsists of 2 lobes: upper &lowerBase more concave by livercompressionBase less concaveAnterior border is completeAnterior border showsCardiac notchLingual (at 6th costal cartilage)Hilum contains two bronchi:EparterialHyparterialHilum contains one bronchusonlyHilum contains one bronchialartery onlyHilum contains two bronchialarterieshttp://www.scribd.com/doc/28759512/Differences-Between-Left-amp-Right-LungsRight lungLeft lungHeavierLighterShorter & wider due to upward compression by liverLonger & narrower due to side compression by heartHas oblique & horizontal (transverse) fissureOnly has oblique fissureThree lobes: upper, middle, and lowerTwo lobes: upper and lowerBase more concave by liver compressionBase less concaveHilum: 2bronchi, 2pulmonary arteries, and 2 pulmonary veinsHilum: one bronchus, 2pulmonary arteries, and 2 pulmonary veins
Your heart is not on the center line of your body for several reasons. Your left ventricle has to pump a lot stronger than the right ventricle. Your left ventricle has to pump blood all over your body. Your right one just pumps blood to your lungs which are right there. The right side is smaller than your left side. Since the right side of your heart is smaller than the left side of your heart, that makes more room on the right side of your chest. Since your body will have more room on the right side of your chest than on the left side, that means your lung will have more room on your right side. Still, it will not have enough room to do anything. But, if It moves your heart a little bit more over to the left, it can put a lobe in your lung to the right. That way your lung can have three lobes on the right side and two lobes on the left side.
