Action of the diaphragm causes healthy lungs to inflate in whole like a balloon.
Doctors have said that the average person does not breath properly, thereby not filling our lungs with sufficient air to help purify our blood. We should do daily exercises of deep beathing or get into the habit of breathing more deeply than we do.

How many people are diagnosed with lung cancer in the US each year?
how many people diagnosed with lung canser 2006 how many people are diagnosed with lung cancer in the us 2006
What is the relationship between chest circumference and lung function test?
what is the relationship between chest circumference and lung function test
What is dependent atelectasis?
This condition is characterized by the collapse of the alveoli. Alveoli look like tiny balloons and they exchange carbon dioxide for oxygen. General anesthesia and lung disease can lead to their collapse.
How many people in the US die each year from lung cancer?
According to the American Cancer Society and the CDC, approximately 163,500 people are expected to die of lung cancer in the USA in 2005. They also estimate that 172,500 people were diagnosed with the disease in 2005 as well.
Wt is Number that describe the likelihood that a certain event will occur?
26 because of the cemmecal of the lung in the body
Does the sheep pluck lung inflate part by part or as a whole?
part by part
Can a lung be burs-ted by lung cancer?
The cancer can cause the lung tissue to start to bleed. But it won't actually burst like a balloon or anything like that.
What is the surgical procedure to inflate the lung using a powder?
pneumothorax
What is out the sturcture of the lungs?
the lung of most frog and other amphibian are simple balloon-like sturture with gas excange limited to the outer surface area of the lung.
What 2 things are air filled with?
a balloon and a lung
How does a doctor repair a collapsed lung?
The doctor will make an incision under the arm, to insert a chest tube. This chest tube will drain off any blood in the lungs, allowing it to re inflate.
What is the structure and function of the lungs?

What happen when you pull down the balloon to the button of the lung model?

Does age affect whether you can inflate a balloon?
Yes. Small children have difficulty because their abdominal muscles are not strong enough to compress the lungs sufficiently. Elderly individuals have the same problem, but it may be further complicated by COPD, emphysema, or other lung problems that restrict the volume of air exhaled,
Are the walls in our lungs similar to the walls of a ballon?
There really isn't much similarity between a balloon and a lung. The surface of a balloon is smooth...lungs have alveolar sacks that increase the surface area of the lung tissue. This also increases the cross membrane exchange from and to the lung and into the capillaries supplying oxygen and expelling carbon dioxide.
Does helium come out of a balloon faster than air?
Yes. The reasons are helium is monoatomicand light and therefore at a particular temperature the helium atoms move faster and can diffuse out quicker than the larger molecules N2, O2 in an air filled balloon. (This is Grahams Law of gaseous effusion in practise)Gases are diffusing through theballoon membrane in both directions- the pressure difference is not really that great after all you can inflate a balloon using only lung power.Fill a balloon with a gas such as SF6 then it will inflateas the lighter faster moving air diffuse in at a higher rate than SF6 diffuses out
Does a sheep lung deflate as a whole?
Yes
