Lungs

Because you want as much air to dissolve into your blood as possible. If you have loads of tiny air sacks then the rate that air is dissolved into your blood is greatly improved. If you ever get a chance to see a dissection of a lung then i recommend it, it makes understanding the lungs a lot easier.

When the chest cavity expands and the diaphragm contracts, it creates more space in the chest cavity. The pressure decreases, and pulls on the lungs. The lungs fill with air to compensate for the lost space from the expansion and contraction.

Total lung volume equals Vital Capacity + Residual Volume.

It really is stored in the nose. The lining of the respiratory tract (including the nose) produces a mucous (phlegm). This traps dust and other stuff that doesn't belong further in the tract. This is moved slowly out with its' dust.

Not being able to take a deep breath is not always considered shortness of breath. If you are exerting yourself, where you need more air but can't take a deep breath, you would have a shortness of breath.

When you breathe in, air enters the body (via mouth or nose) and travels down a tube called the windpipe (aka trachea) and into the lungs. When you exhale, carbon dioxide gas is released. Heres something fun for you to try, take a deep breath (inhale with your nose) and try and imagine oxygen going into the lungs. Hope this helped:)

if your wondering what 27/27 means this is the answer, 27/27 would mean that your ''husband'' sees what everyone else sees from 27 feet since 20/20 means the same thing(i have no clue why an eye doctor would use 27/27) to make it easier to explain ill use 20/30 that means that if you were 20 feet away from something that is what a person with 20/20 vision would see from 30 feet away.

A person is contagious with a chest cold for about 2 weeks. A doctor can give you medicine to help you get rid of the chest cold.

A doctor can tell if a person has abnormal breath sounds by listening with a stethoscope. This is often seen in people with COPD or asthma.

the lunge is a great exercise for the legs.

There does not appear to be a scientific term to describe a fear of lungs.

It has to get oxygen and get rid of CO2

its is found in the lungs

Merv Griffin was a famous talk show host and creator of some very successful game shows. While many men do not get their prostate checked regularly, especially as they age, Mr. Griffin did all the right things and had regular check-ups. When he was diagnosed with cancer in 1996, he was treated promptly, and his doctors believed they had caught his cancer in time. Sadly, it returned a few years later, leading to his death in 2007, at age 82.

If you have a phlem productive cough, then it is contagious. Learned that working on the ambulance.

yes no your nose protects your lungs from harmful gases

Because the bronchial tree needs to divide the oxygen into diffrent parts of the lungs.

I believe it is the epiglottis, it covers the trachea preventing you from aspirating fluid and such...

It is a form of lung disease that looks like ground glass on x-ray and CT scans.

The most common causes of ground-glass opacity include usual interstitial pneumonia, nonspecific interstitial pneumonitis, desquamative interstitial pneumonia, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, pulmonary oedema and pulmonary haemorrhage, and pneumonias (particularly pneumocystis carinii pneumonia). Less common causes include alveolar proteinosis, acute interstitial pneumonia or other causes of diffuse alveolar damage or the adult respiratory distress syndrome, respiratory bronchiolitis and early radiation pneumonitis.

The bell jar is an airtight space. When the rubber diaphragram is pulled the volume of the space increases and air rushes into fill it, therefore expanding the balloons. When the diaphragram is released the volume of the space dcreases and the air in the balloons is pushed out. The balloons deflate.

Your Rib Cage protects your lungs.

The diaphragm is a sheath of muscle that separates the organs of the chest and abdomen. When you take a breath, you're flexing the diaphragm and a number of smaller muscles in your chest. This inflates the lungs, creating a partial vacuum, drawing air into your nose and mouth and into your lungs.

gaseous exchange in the lungs takes place in the walls of the alveoli which are provided with a rich supply of blood vessels .the partial pressures of the gases .i.e. CO2 and oxygen in the atmosphere and the blood vessel is naturally perfect for the diffusion of gases.
