What is the complete cycle of blood from hearth to lungs?
De-oxygenated blood enters the right atrium from the vena cava and then passes through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle. It is then sqeezed/pumped through the right semi lunar valve into right pulmonary artery which transports blood to the lungs. Oxygenated blood returns to the heart via pulmonary veins and enters the left atrium, passes through the bicuspid valve to enter the left ventricle which contracts, sqeezing/pumping the oxygenated blood through the left semi lunar valve into the aorta from where it is transported to all the body's cells.

Name the two structures that leave permanent imprints in the lobes of the left lung of humans?
it depends which lung you are talking about. On the mediastinal suface right lung there is imprints from the superior vena cava and diaphragm and in the left is the arch of the aorta. Both have cardiac impression more notable on left lung.
yes, well they give out Co2, heat and water. heat and water because In your lungs, water evaporates and heat is conducted into the air that you exhale. So not really "waste"
No, they do not. Blood flows through the lung and during that time, the lungs fill up our RBCs (Red Blood Cells) with oxygen which is transmitted to all parts of our body.
What is the path that air travels to the lungs?
Air enters the body through the nose or mouth, which are connected through the nasal and oral cavities to the pharynx, through which air passes to the larynx and food to the esophagus. Air passes through the larynx (the voicebox), and then to the trachea, the "windpipe". The main brochial passageways (bronchi) subdivide in the lungs into smaller and smaller airways, and finally to the individual air sacs called alveoli, where oxygen enters the bloodstream.
Who performed the first successful lung transplant?
The first lung transplant was attempted by Dr. Hardy at the University of Mississippi in 1964. This was not a successful procedure.
The first long-term success with single lung transplantation was performed by the team at the University of Toronto Thoracic Surgery Group in Toronto, Canada (at the Toronto General Hospital) in 1983. The Toronto group also performed the first successful double lung transplant in 1986.
Prior to that, the Stanford University group performed the first successful heart-lung transplant.
Which term means the permanent dilation of the bronchi caused by chronic infection and inflammation?
Copd, chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder/disease
In lungs there are several types of tissues, depending of what part of the lung you're referring to.
It gets thinner and thinner from bronchi to alveoli, for example with just one layer of cells in these last ones.
Your lungs are the largest breathing muscle in your body.
Is marijuana bad for the lungs?
Yes and no.
Herb has the came amount of natural toxic substances as tabacoo. It should be noted that tobacco cultivation and processing adds a vast number of horrible chemicals to the products. So typically herb is not even remotely as bad for the lungs as a cigarette. Another thing to note is that a herb smoker will likely have 2 to 5 usages per week as opposed to 3 to 15 for most cigarette users. This is likely because of the fact that herb is less addictive that coffee. That said, if you are going to use herb you should get a vaporizer.....then you will not burn the herb but rather vaporize the active substances that help with stress and relaxation.

How does a doctor repair a collapsed lung?

What is residual volume significance?
If, when you exhaled, all the air in your lungs escaped you wouldn't receive a substantial amount of oxygen to nurish your lungs or your body for that matter.
What collects blood from the lungs?
Blood that has perfused the lungs and is now oxygenated collects into the pulmonary veins to travel back to the heart. Once reaching the heart, oxygenated blood from the lungs enters the left atrium. The left atrium collects blood from the lungs
What can stop cancer cells from dividing?
There are a number of responses to this question: * If a single-celled organism, then it cannot grow because as the name suggests, it can only grow to one cell. * If there are no centrioles, because the cell cannot produce the spindles neccasary for the chromosomes to line up and so cannot reproduce. * If there is no genetic material (chromosomes/chromatin), because it won't reproduce, because it needs genetic material to make an identical copy and so go through the process of interphase and mitosis to make a new cell and grow.
No, it is one part of the human bady that does not grow but the human eyeball does not grow either.
The thoracic cavity is the anatomical region with the lungs being situated inside the right and left pleural cavities that flank the pericardial cavity .
Why do pig's bronchi contain cartilage rings?
Many mammals have cartilage rings in their tracheas, which may also extend down the mainstem bronchi. These rings are in place to physically keep the major airways propped open so that air can flow easily.
