PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Your lungs are on each side of your heart, inside your chest cavity. They are the main organs of the respiratory system. The right lung is divided into three lobes (sections), and the left lung is divided into two lobes.

Detailed explanation-2: -The main function of the lungs is the process of gas exchange called respiration (or breathing). In respiration, oxygen from incoming air enters the blood, and carbon dioxide, a waste gas from the metabolism, leaves the blood. A reduced lung function means that the ability of lungs to exchange gases is reduced.

Detailed explanation-3: -The most important function of the lungs is to take oxygen from the environment and transfer it to the bloodstream. Lung functions tests can show how well the lungs carry out this task. The lungs are the major organs of the respiratory system, which helps provide the body with a continuous supply of oxygen.
