Yes, the lungs are part of the immune system as they play a critical role in defending the body against infections. They contain immune cells, such as macrophages and lymphocytes, that help identify and eliminate pathogens. Additionally, the respiratory system has mechanisms like mucus production and cilia that trap and expel harmful particles and microorganisms. Thus, while the lungs are primarily for respiration, they also contribute significantly to the immune response.
