Lungs

Surfactant is similar to a detergent, it keeps the fluid coating the lining of the alveoli from creating surface tension. This allows the alveoli to expand without hindrance, and allows greater air flow.

That depends on your gender. BAsically, the exercise chosen must target the muscles giving the characteristic shape to the body. Women should target primarily glutes, legs, waist, belly, pectorals and the torso in general. Men should target dorsals, biceps, arms in general, legs, pectorals and abdominals. Weight resistance exercises as weight lifting or bodybuilding machines produce bulk while exercises of flexibility and stretching will provide longer muscles.

Cilia are responsible for removing foreign material from the trachea and bronchi. They are like little dusters that remove germs and bacteria.

What symptoms did you have when you acquired the insurance?

Did you know you EVER had pneumonia?

If no or none, you're OK. If you had "something" you might have a problem.

Even if it is a pre-x - You need to see what the waiting periods are and if you had insurance prior to getting this plan. HMO's don't have pre-x clauses.

Pre-x is a TWO part question - 1. Will you get coverage in the FIRST place.

2. When is the condition covered.

Here's a better explanation of how a group plan must add you on when you marry. It also explains how long they can hold the pre-x clause over you.

No, it would have to be an actual condition like, "bronchitis," and even then if you haven't had treatment during the lookback period it won't be considered pre-x.

A collapsed lung is not functional because it can not fill up with air, and in turn cannot filter the oxygen out of it.

dilates bronchioles so the person can breathe more easily

The Interstitial Lung Disease which is also known as the Diffuse Parenchymal Lung Disease mainly refers to a group of lung diseases affecting the interstitium or more commonly the tissue and space around the air sac of the lungs.

There are many signs and symptoms of Interstitial Lung Disease. The common ones are :

External Breathlessnes

Cough

Production of Sputum

Wheezing

Hemoptysis

Nonrespiratory Symptoms such as myalgia, arthralgia, sclerodactyly.

Happy to help you.

The Rib Cage, Sternum and the Diaphragm.

It is larger than the left lung because the left lung is smaller to make room for the heart.

when you run you breathe faster so yeah....... :D

(I know that was lame)

It can be bad especially if one suffers from allergies or conditions such as asthma. The chemicals used in the incense can irritate the bronchioles and cause an asthmatic attack.

A healthy person cannot breathe through their ears. However, someone who has a busted ear drum can actually have air flow through their Eustachian tube, a small tube between the nasal cavity and the inside side of the eardrum, which is used to equalize the pressure on both sides of the ear drum to prevent it from blowing out.

The job of the lungs is to bring oxygen into the body and remove carbon dioxide. Oxygen is a gas that provides us with energy, whilst carbon dioxide is a waste product or "exhaust" of the body.

well carbon dioxide and oxygen

No. Sugar comes from sugar cane and when heated it melts.

Rails, also known as crackles or rales, are abnormal lung sounds heard during auscultation with a stethoscope. They are characterized by a series of short, popping sounds and typically indicate the presence of fluid in the airways or alveoli, often associated with conditions like pneumonia, heart failure, or pulmonary fibrosis. Rails can be categorized as fine or coarse, depending on their sound characteristics and the underlying cause of the lung pathology. These sounds are important clinical signs that help healthcare providers assess respiratory conditions.

There are two cells that oxygen must diffuse from. Once the oxygen enters the lungs, it is pushed to the aveoli, which is one cell thick and where the gas exchange occurs. Surrounding it are capillaries, which is also one cell thick. Here, oxygen moves across the two cells while the CO2 exits the red blood cell to exit the lungs.

It is a negative pressure shell that fits the upper body. It is used to provide negative pressure to patients which provides a pressure gradient to move air into and out of the lungs.

run the machine and look after the tube rating... and placing the roller pump at its position just measure the drop through it

It is located inside your rib cage,Protected by rib bones.

Go to your doctor. From the look of the question you're going to need him. I have been to my doctor.......but after a needle biopsy showing atypical cells I'd like to know if this could have been caused by the pneumonia or bronchitis I had.

oxygen passes through the pleural cavity to blood( red blood cells)

For oxygen to diffuse into capillary beds of any organism, there needs to be a certain amount of moisture.
