What else can I help you with?
Witch lung takes in more air left or right?
the lung are the same in the capacity,,,
Does the Right lung hold more oxygen?
I would think so. The right lung has three lobes and is larger than the two-lobed left lung, which must make room for the heart. Also, females are generally smaller than males, so their lung capacity is about 20% less, and..believe it or not..taller people generally have longer lungs, so they have more capacity than short people!
Does your lung holds more air than your left lung?
A natural human pair of lungs have the small right lung and the larger left lung to allow room for the heart. So to answer your question your left lung will hold more.
How many lobes do the right and left lung have?
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.
Why is the apex of the right lung more likely to have tuberculosis?
Tuberculosis seems to be more common in the right lung rather than the left lung due to the short right trachea. Anatomically the left trachea is longer than the right one due to the position of the heart and the major vessels. As a result microbes can more easily navigate to the right lung rather than the left lung.
Which lung is smaller your right or your left and Why?
The right lung is slightly bigger due to the heart. The heart takes up more room on the left side so that the right lung has more room on the right side.
Why cancer more often in the right lung?
maybe because there is a bit more lung on the right side of the chest than on the left side.
How right and left lungs are different?
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.
Why is it that the right side of the LUNGS is bigger than left side?
Its bigger because the right lung has more lobs then the left lung.
Does the right lung get more blood clots than the left?
yes
Why does the right lung have 3 lobes and the left have 2?
The left lung has 2 lobes due to the space occupied by the heart, which pushes against the left lung. The right lung has 3 lobes because it has more space in the chest cavity to accommodate the extra lobe.
How will an obstruction in the right primary bronchus affect how oxygen-dissociation for the right lung compare with the left lung?
An obstruction in the right primary bronchus will reduce air flow to the right lung, leading to inefficient oxygen exchange. This could result in lower oxygen levels and altered oxygen dissociation in the right lung compared to the left lung, which receives adequate airflow.
