Lungs

The lungs are located on either side of the breastbone in the chest cavity and are divided into five main sections (lobes). The lungs are responsible for removing carbon dioxide from the blood and adding oxygen to it. The heart and lungs work together to do this.

The lungs contain thousands of thin tubes that end in bunches of tiny air sacs (alveoli). Each one of these sacs is covered in blood vessels that connect to a system of veins and arteries that move blood through the body.

When you take a breath, the pulmonary (lung) artery and its branches bring blood containing lots of carbon dioxide and no oxygen into these vessels. Carbon dioxide leaves the blood and enters the air, and oxygen leaves the air and enters the blood.

Once the blood has plenty of oxygen and no carbon dioxide, it is returned to the heart and pumped to the rest of the body.

HOPE THIS WILL HELP YOU TO CLEAR YOUR DOUBT!
