Lungs

Smoking causes 90% of lung cancer in men and 80% lung cancer cases seen in women in U.S.

Blood travels to the lungs because it is not oxygenated and it will become oxygenated in the lungs, since that is what the lungs are for. The pulmonary artery takes blood to the lungs, and the pulmonary vein takes blood from the lungs back to the heart, from whence it is pumped throughout the body.

By putting pressure on the lungs with the diaprhragm (a platform of muscles just below the lungs.

Trachea

When the blood is pumped through the pulmonary artery to the pulmonary capillaries The Oxygen diffuses across the alveolar-capillary membrane and is absorbed by the hemoglobin in the red blood cells.

That's the simple form. There are 4 Heme groups in each cell(heme is the iron containing substance that binds with oxygen). The first, second and third group saturate rather rapidly achieving a 75% saturation. The last group saturates at a slower rate simply because of the diffusion gradient and normally stops combining with oxygen at around 21% giving you a total of 96% saturation. This is why hemoglobin is so important. This saturation is effected by things like the patient's body temperature, the pH of the blood, the amount of hemoglobin available etc.

The oxygen content of the blood reaching the Pulmonary Veins is also effected by gravity. If the patient is upright most of the circulation goes to the bases of the lungs and the least amount of blood gets to the apices. The middle portion of the lungs gets just the "right" amount. This is important because the air ventilating the lungs goes preferentially to the apices and less to the bases. So you can see there is a mismatch in the bases and in the apices. But in the middle there is just the right matching. That is if the patient is upright. If they are lieing down the blood flow goes preferentially to to the lowest point. This whole thing is called the Ventilation/perfusion ratio. This is a very important concept when you are thinking about how a disease entity eg. pneumonia, effects the patient's Blood gases.

The other change that takes place is the exchange of CO2 that regulates the pH of the blood. CO2 is carried in the blood in combination with H2O. This forms carbonic acid. The carbonic acid is balanced by HCO3 and the result of the matching of the two results in the hydrogen ion concentration or simply, the pH. To explain the whole chemical process would be lengthy so I'll just leave it at that.

So the blood that has gone through the lungs has changed two basic ways. It has collected Oxygen to deliver to the tissues and it's had it's pH regulated so metabolic processes can go on normally.

I would explain how the pH is regulated in more detail at another time. Also, you should look up the Oxy-hemoglobin dissociation curve.There is a world of knowledge out there.

i hope that you don't mind latina terminology.

Oncology is the branch of medicine that focuses on cancer.

By having millions of these tiny sacs, the surface area of the lungs is vastly increased. This adaprtation enables a greater volume of air to breathed in, in each breath. An increased surface area allows for more diffusion to take place between the lungs and the blood.

The lungs are the major organ in the respiratory system, which also includes the nerves, airways and blood vessels that serve them.

The mediastinum.

There are many factors contributing to prostate cancer:

1 - hereditary

2 - dietary habits

3 - lifestyle habits

4 - male hormones

which increase the risk to get prostate cancer.

When you slice a section of lung the inside surface is bright pink and has a soft spongy texture.The holes in this 'sponge' are much smaller than you would imagine. In smokers, old miners etc this, unfortunately, is not the case. If you have ever tried to burn an old pair of leather boots and failed you will know what I mean. TAKE HEED!!

What are the main organs of the intergumentary

The incubation period of the common cold is typically 36 to 48 hours, but, in some cases, symptoms can arise within 12 hours, or slightly less, of catching the virus. From the time a cold virus enters the nose, it takes 8-12 hours for the viral reproductive cycle to be completed and for new cold virions to be shed (released) in nasal secretions. This time period is called the "incubation period".

However, the incubation period differs depending on the specific common cold virus involved and the individual infected. There are over 200 viruses responsible for the common cold. According to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the incubation periods for a few of the most common causative viruses involved with the common cold are:

Rhinovirus: 2-7 days.

Coronaviruses: 2-10 days.

Adenoviruses: 2-14 days.

Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV): 2-8 days

Cold symptoms can also begin shortly after new virus particles are first produced in the nose (10-12 hours). The time from the beginning of the infection to the peak of symptoms is typically 36-72 hours. Adults can be infectious beginning a day or two before feeling any symptoms. Some people never develop symptoms even if infected allowing for more unknowing spread of the disease. The most contagious period is typically on the third day following initiation of symptoms.

The left lung has only two lobes and the right has three.

type II alveolar cells

In the pulmonary system, the Alveoli are the small sacs at the end of the bronchioles which are connected to the bronchus. It is within these sacs that gas exchange occurs.

oxygen. You breathe out carbon dioxide and you breathe in oxygen it is all oxygen in you body its hoe it comes out

They are mostly air.

Lungs contain avleoli ( little air sacs) where oxygen is relased into capillaries(veins that carry blood). The blood becomes oxygenated and then travels to the heart to be pumped throughout the body.

They supply the body with oxygen and remove carbon dioxide.

Oxygen travels into the smallest air sacs of the lungs, called alveoli. Capillaries around these air sacs allow blood to exchange oxygen for unwanted carbon dioxide. The oxygen-rich blood then returns to the heart to be pumped to the rest of the body. The carbon dioxide in the lungs is passed out of the body through the mouth and nose when we exhale.

So basically, your lungs have deoxygenated blood while the body has oxygenated blood.

Every animal have Lungs will tell me something how do you think the Animal can breath for example people breath from the lungs and if you dont take care of breathing you may have asthma

Lungs are pink in color because they are full of oxygen rich blood. Oxygen poor blood, on the other hand, has blue color to it.
