Your lungs take in the oxygen that you breathe and takes the oxygen around your body with red blood cells through the veins and arteries.

They pump air into your blood which goes around you body to kill bacteria/virus, give cells nutrients, and heal wounds. If your lungs are destroyed or you don't breath then you would die usually.
