Humans and the Rat Respiratory System The human respiratory system is very similar‚ if not practically identical‚ to the respiratory system of a rat. The only notable difference is the division of the lobes in human lungs. The left lung of a rat is composed of 1 lobe‚ while the right lung has 4 lobes. The right lung of a human contains 3 lobes and the left lung is composed of 2 lobes. Other than that (and some structural differences along with size) the human and rat respiratory systems work in the same

Effects of Smoking on Respiratory System Effects of Smoking on Respiratory System Every day‚ millions of people light up a cigarette and smoke. Some have just started smoking‚ while others have smoked their whole lives. Most likely‚ once you start smoking‚ you won’t be able to stop.

can affect the respiratory system. The first effect is‚ eating fast food can lead to obesity which affects the respiratory system by decreasing the volume of the lungs. This lowers the forced expiratory volume in one second. It also lowers the vital capacity. This also lowers functional residual capacity. That is one effect of fast food on the respiratory system. The second effect is‚ that fast food causes causes obesity around the abdomen which worsens lung functions and respiratory symptoms. This

The number of lymphocytes in the GALT is roughly equivalent to those in the spleen‚ and‚ based on location‚ these cells are distributed in three basic populations: 1.

I work in the respiratory system department. There are five more interesting facts I would like to share with you about my department. The first is that there are four processes that make up respiration: pulmonary ventilation‚ external respiration‚ transport of respiratory gases‚ and internal respiration. It also consist of two zones: the respiratory zone and the conducting zone. The respiratory zone is the actual site of gas exchange. The conducting zone is all the other respiratory passageways that
