Lungs

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.

Bronchi (plural of bronchus) are tubes that branch off from the trachea into each lung. Bronchioles are smaller tubes that branch off from each bronchus. Also there are only two bronchi compared with the hundreds of bronchioles

The Nasal Cavity

Oxygen is breathed in and carbon dioxide is breathed out as it is deadly to humans. Too much carbon dioxide breathed in will cause brain damage and eventually death.

arteries carry red blood (oxygen), veins carry blue blood (no oxygen), i don't think that blood carries CO2,

Oxygen and carbon dioxide

The lungs are never truly 'empty'. Even if you exhale as hard and as long as you can there will still be some air in them.

Unless of course your lung collapses, but you will not live for very long in such case.

no because the lungs help you breath but the heart helps to get blood in your system

high compliance

Usually, yes.

The most common causes are respiratory synsythial virus (RSV), parainfluenza viruses, influenza viruses. Metapneumovirus, human bocavirus, and a number of other recently discovered viruses are implicated as well.

The sternum is anterior to the heart (in front of the heart). It may also be called superficial or ventral to the heart.

There must be areas of different concentration.

Many things can harm the lungs. Like smoking, or any smoke in general that may be dangerous to your health. Pollution is another one, even though it may not be as harmful to the lungs as smoke would be.

Hagfish and lampreys have gills. They are the only living members of a primitive group of fish without jaws. They have round sucker-like mouths.

Bronchiole tubes, bronchioles, and alveoli.

You asked: Can rheumatic fever cause calcified granulomas in the lungs?

My answer: Yes, it can, and I'm one of them with it. I'm a health researcher and research committee chair that has studied many types of pathologies and chronic diseases. I am also profoundly deaf and have been at least severely hearing impaired starting at age 2 1/2 when I had a case of double mumps that weakened my immune system and set me for rheumatic fever at ten (found from Strep Group A). Repeated attacks took me in and out of the hospital and long road with off and on antibiotics. The aminoglycosides that were used early on slowly destroyed the remainder of my hearing and vestibular organ setting me up for a lifetime of Meniere's Syndrome and advancing sarciodosis that eventually attacked my lungs, heart, and aorta,. My heart valves were destroyed from years of attacks on it from RF, along with ossicification of my lungs. Nineteen years ago, when I was at death's doorstep, I was able to turn my health around (that alone is enough for book!). Today, at age almost 70 I feel so blessed to still be alive with all I've been through. However, with sarciodosis apparently triggered by an underlying propensity for the RF to return (I control it with daily low dose amoxicillian, but that is sometimes not enough with the heavy travel and work schedule I maintain in my work) , today, my vascular system is under attack from very active sarciodosis. The aorta is very inflamed and extends to many of my organs and heart and brain. But there are tools in the toolbox to slow it and hopefully conquer it another 10-20 years. We don't microwave our food, eat organically as much as possible, follow the Fast Metabolism Diet, and try to stay buried in my work in finding solutions for the pressing health problems that plaque mankind. I tell you my story for three reasons: 1) Yes, to your question if RF can lead to sarciodosis---many autoimmune diseases can lead to it and trigger it, so it is wise to be aware of it, because getting the diagnosis is tough; 2) you must keep up hope and not surrender, and 3) to give others--patients, researchers, clinicians, and physicians, all-- a pathway to looking closer at the idiopathic cases and know this: the key to health is within the immune system and how it is treated: first, and always, the place to resolve problematic, life threatening conditions is getting the patient healthy--leaving them where they are and not insisting on changes of diet, lifestyle, hydration, substance abuse, and all other clear dangers to health is no way to treat a patient. Educate them, inspire them, convince them, and you will done more good than all the medicine and medical equipment in the world.

what does each lobe consist of

Trachea

i cnt trace it cuz this is a writing answer but the unoxygnated blood comes down through veins into the right atrium and out the right ventricle it passes the aveoli goes through the left atrium and out the left ventricle through the aorta and eventually into small capilaries

To test lung capacity, doctors/nurses can use spirometry. Spirometry involves the patient exhaling into a mouthpiece/tube that is connected to a computerized device. This divice monitors the amount of air the patient is exhaling. Once the person fully exhales, the results can be analyzed by either viewing the results on a computer monitor or by printing the results out.

See the related links section for a great Web site that explains lung capacity testing!

Absolutly nothing. Air TRAVELS to your lungs. Nothing makes it go to your lungs.

insects have trachea breathing systems which means a tunnel from outside reaches every single cell in the insect body. some areas in these tunnels are loose and called air sacs which resemble lungs in function but anatomicly they do not have lungs the way we do.

You would have severe breathing difficulties, or be unable to breathe at all. When a baby's diaphragm has a hole in it, it is call diaphragmatic hernia.
