Lungs

Stop trying to cheat on your homework I am going to tell Mr. Andrade

The lungs are located on either side of the body within the rib cage. The lungs are paired, so each one is "beside" your upper arm in your body cavity under your chest. They extend to your elbow.

yes!

Approximately 4.9 l/min (on average)

There is a condition called "Black Lung" which is common in coal miners. When they are in the mines they breathe coal dust and over time, the coal makes their lungs black.

An article in the 1980's stated that in California, if you live within a quarter mile of a major freeway for 20 years, your lungs will look like you were a one-pack-per-day smoker for 5 years....so smoking and breathing smog can also cause lungs to be black.

atelectasia is the term used for lack of dilation of lungs or lung collapse because of obstruction by foreign body/mucus plug/tumor.Pneumothorax,lack of surfactant and pulmonary embolism are some other causes.

primary bronchi

False.

Treatment for "opacity in the right upper lobe" of the lungs depends on what caused the "opacity" and its size. For example, the body can try to "wall off" infection, making a non-opaque "spot" or area. As the infection clears, the spot clears too.

The mouth and nose serve to bring air in and out of the body. The trachea brings air from the nose and mouth to the lungs and vice versa. The lungs hold the bronchi which are groups of avioli .The alvioli serve as docking stations where blood cells can exchange co2 for oxygen they take to the rest of the body.

The epiglottis. The epiglottis is a flap of flexible cartilage above the larynx, or voice box. It closes when you swallow, preventing food, water, or saliva from going down the trachea into the lungs.

It could be tricky .. It may be Pulmonary tension , if u received a hit on your chest . also it could be obstruction on the pulmonary alvioli . i suggest you to go to see a doctor ASAP .

Since diamond is the hardest mineral on earth, one would suspect that if inhaled, the crystals would embed themselves into the lungs and cause permanent damage.

A one-time exposure would be less harmless than a consistent job that required inhalation of diamond dust. As with asbestos inhalation, the damage is done to the lungs and sometimes death does result.

As soon as you get the test results back from the culture you have the okay to insert the picc line.

wheezing from shortness of breath

There are about 30,000 of them in each lung.

At present no. However advances in science and cloning indicate tat the regrowth of organs from stem cells is a possibility for the future. There have been remarkable progress in the printing of organs using 3D printers which may dovetail with this cloning research.

Sin quenta en dolares. There is no value in dollars, only in it's labor

If you want a 'yes' or 'no' answer, the answer is no. Here's why.

A short person is simply a short person; not a lesser-equipped person in terms of human anatomy. Most every aspect of a little person is simply less large.

As you well know, when flying with two lungs one often pops. yes of course its fine to fly with one lung as far as lungs go, but why you have one lung may be cause for concern. Speak to your doctor.

Yes you could. You could inhale the debris that the tornado picked up. You would have to be relatively close, though.

The contraction of the diaphragm enlarges the volume of the chest cavity. This causes the air pressure in the chest cavity to decrease. This is because of the physics principle that states that, if the amount of gas in a particular container is constant, the product of pressure and volume is constant. Since you're increasing volume, the pressure must decrease.

You can't live without your lungs because you cannot breath without them. Without them they cannot introduce inhaled oxygen to the Circulatory system.

The lung is "held" to the thoracic wall by a vacuum or a "potential" space. The thoracic wall has a thin membrane attached to it called the parietal pleura. The lung also has this membrane attached to it but is called the visceral pleura. The two pleura touch each other and slide against each other but are not attached. There is no space between them in the same way there is no space between the sides of a balloon when you suck out the air. If you are stabbed in the chest, an opening is created and air rushes in the hole. The "potential" space becomes an actual space as the lung collapses (a condition called a pneumothorax).

Abusers are bad. Period. It is common for someone who has been abused to feel lonely when the abuser becomes absent, but it is because of the stress of change. If you feel yourself running back to your abuser, get help. The situation will only escalate otherwise.
