Definition of the lung in English English dictionary
lung: A biological organ that extracts oxygen from the air
lung: Your lungs are the two organs inside your chest which fill with air when you breathe in. Either of two light, spongy, elastic organs in the chest, used for breathing. Each is enclosed in a membrane (pleura). Contraction of the diaphragm and the muscles between the ribs draw air into the lungs through the trachea, which splits into two primary bronchi, one per lung. Each bronchus branches into secondary bronchi (one per lobe of lung), tertiary bronchi (one per segment of lung), and many bronchioles leading to the pulmonary alveoli. There oxygen in the inspired gas is exchanged for carbon dioxide from the blood in the surrounding capillaries. Adequate tissue oxygen supply depends on sufficient distribution of air (ventilation) and blood (perfusion) in the lungs. Lung injuries or diseases (e.g., emphysema, embolism, pneumonia) can affect either or both. lung collapse brown lung disease Hei lung chiang Hei lung Chiang Lung men caves Lung shan culture lung cancer lung congestion Ch'ien lung emperor Ya lung River
