Describe the gross anatomy of the lungs; And define pneumonia and outline briefly the etiology‚ pathophysiology and radiographic appearances of alveolar pneumonia. 1. Introduction The lungs are the essential organs of respiration; they are two in number and are placed one on either side within the thorax‚ separated from each other by the heart. The substance of the lung is light‚ spongy and porous. The surface is smooth‚ shining and marked into numerous areas‚ indicating the lobules of the organs

presentation that shows that smoking cigarette can cause lung cancer. But since the representative of the tobacco industry asks for evidence‚ it is proper that an answer be provided. My interpretation of the evidence on how smoking affects lung cancer is based on good clinical data. They are many factors that can cause lung cancer such as radon and asbestos‚ people who have never smoke and people who have never been exposed to cigarette smoking can develop lung cancer‚ demonstrating that more than one factor

Lung Capacity in this lab‚ I learned about lung capacity and CO2 production. Lung capacity simply means the maximum amount of air you can take into your lungs. Lung capacity and CO2 production closely relate to the respiratory system. The respiratory system is the system in which oxygen goes into your body and carbon dioxide comes out; In short it’s breathing. The structures involved in the respiratory system are mouth/nose‚ mucus/cilia‚ pharynx‚ larynx‚ bronchi‚ bronchioles‚ alveoli‚ pleura‚ and

The lungs are made up of many types of tissue; the cartilages‚ ciliated epithelium‚ smooth muscle‚ squamous epithelium‚ elastic fibres and goblet cells and glandular tissue. The cartilage is a very stiff and flexible tissue‚ which doesn’t contain air vessels. It is found in trachea‚ bronchus‚ bronchiole and alveolus‚ and it has a structural role. It support‚ and gives strength to trachea and bronchi. It holds the airways open for the resistance with little airway. This prevents it from collapse

It is humane to restrict smoking from school because the children are still developing‚ therefore; their lungs are still small and weak. This causes their lungs to be more available to any types of issues that come with receiving the smokers secondhand smoke. So‚ if this wasn’t a restriction that interfered with one’s freedom‚ there would have been many kids right now with dysfunctional lungs because of all the

The black lung movement was a movement formed in the late 1960’s in which the miners fought for the health benefits to cover black lung disease. Black lung is directly caused by mining and working with coal. Mildred Mullins wrote this poem and hung it on the coffin of her dead husband in the Capital to display what was going on‚ “Compensation we are asking‚ While alive and still gasping; When life is o’er and hymns are sung‚ Then they’ll know we have black lung.( “Charleston Gazette” 15)” The miners
