Answer:
The right lung of rabbit consisted of four lobes; cranial lobe, middle lobe, caudal lobe and accessory lobe, while the left lung consisted of two lobes; cranial and caudal lobes. Conclusion: It was observed that the rabbit has four pulmonary veins, two from each lung.
Explanation:
Each lung is enclosed within a pleural sac that contains pleural fluid, which allows the inner and outer walls to slide over each other whilst breathing takes place, without much friction. This sac also divides each lung into sections called lobes. The right lung has three lobes and the left has two.
