How many chambers does a cat have and how many chambers do humans have?

We really don't use the term chambers for lungs. We use the term lobes. Each lung consists of several distinct lobes. The right lung (the larger of the two) has 3 lobes - the superior, middle, and inferior lobes. The horizontal fissure separates the superior lobe from the middle lobe, while the right oblique fissure separates the middle and inferior lobes. The smaller left lung only has 2 lobes - superior and inferior - separated by the left oblique fissure. There are about 300 million alveoli in each of your lungs. These tiny air sacs provide an ideal site for the diffusion of gases into and out of the blood - also known as gaseous exchange.


Name the lobes of the rat's lungs?

Pigs have 4 lobes in their right lung and 3 lobes in their left lung. The 3 lobes of the left lung are apical, cardiac, and diaphragmatic lobes.

What is the fiber direction of a cats internal oblique muscles?

The cat's muscle fibers run perpendicular to its internal oblique muscles. The fibers of the external oblique muscles run opposite of the muscles.


How do the seven lobes of the cat lung compare with humans?

A cat has 7 lobes of the lung. The right side has 3; the right apical, right cardiac, and right diaphragmatic. The left also has 3; the left apical, left cardiac, and left diaphragmatic. There is one lobe directly in between both sides called the intermediate lobe.

What is the function of the horizontal fissure of the left lung?

The function of the horizontal fissure of the left lung helps the constipated human to release any excess carbon from their body, meaning it is easier for them to defecate. Although in some cases of severe diarrhoea the mantelpiece of the left lung collapses into the pancreas distorting and disturbing the function of the horizontal fissure.


What is the difference from the right lung and the left lung?

in humans Right lung Left lung Heavier Lighter Shorter & wider due to upward compression by liver Longer & narrower due to side compression by heart Has oblique & horizontal (transverse) fissure Only has oblique fissure Three lobes: upper, middle, and lower Two lobes: upper and lower Base more concave by liver compression Base less concave Hilum: 2bronchi, 2pulmonary arteries, and 2 pulmonary veins Hilum: one bronchus, 2pulmonary arteries, and 2 pulmonary veins


What is the superior lobe and what does it do?

The Left lung is divided into two lobes, an upper and a lower, by the oblique fissure, which extends from the coastal to the mediastinal surface of the lung both above and below the hilus. It lies above and in front of this fissure, and includes the apex, the anterior border, and a considerable part of the coastal surface and the greater part of the mediastinal surface of the lung.

How do separate the right and left pulmonary segment?

This is probably what u are looking for but however there is a longer explanation to this which i believe u can get in another place and i wont be typing it here.The Left Lung1. It is slender and divided into superior (upper) and inferior (lower) lobes by a long deep oblique fissurewhich extends from its coastal to medial surface.2. The superior lobe has a large cardiac notch on its anterior border.3. The anteroinferior part of the superior lobe has a small tongue-like projection called the lingula.4. The inferior lobe of the left lung is larger than the superior lobe and lies inferoposterior to the oblique fissure.The Right Lung1. The right lung is shorter and wider than the left lung, because the right dome of the diaphragm is higher and the heart and pericardium bulge more to the left.2. It is divided into superior (upper), middle, and inferior (lower) lobes by horizontal and oblique fissures.3. The horizontal fissure separates the superior and middle lobes.4. The oblique fissure separates the inferior lobefrom the superior and middle lobes.5. The superior lobe is smaller than in the left lung, and the middle lobe is wedge-shaped.6. The anterior margin of the right lung is straight, whereas the margin of the left lung has a deep cardiac notch.
