With reference to lungs, an important part of the respiratory system considers the following statements: i. Humans have two lungs- a right lung as well as a left lung. ii. Lungs are located just below the rib cage and above the diaphragm. Select the correct answer using the code given below: Correct Answer Both i and ii

The correct answer is Both i and ii.

  • The lungs are the primary organs of the respiratory system in humans-beings. 

Key Points

  • There are two lungs in humans located near the backbone on either side of the heart.
  • Humans have two lungs, a right lung, and a left lung. 
  • They are situated within the thoracic cavity of the chest.
  • Lungs are an important part of the respiratory system and waste management for the body.
  • The function of the lungs in the respiratory system is to remove oxygen from the atmosphere and transfer it into the bloodstream and release carbon dioxide from the bloodstream into the atmosphere, thus, helping in the process of gas exchange.

The cages of five animals, Lion, Tiger, Elephant, Giraffe and Zebra were kept in a line one after the other, not necessarily in the same order. Lion’s cage is not kept at the last and giraffe’s cage is not kept at the first. Tiger’s cage was kept at the centre of the line. Zebra’s cage was kept after Lion’s but before Tiger’s cage. There was one cage kept between Tiger’s and Giraffe’s cage. Whose cage is kept at the last in the line?

Read the following information carefully and answer the questions that follow: Seven persons Tina, Vini, Yasir, Rishi, Sanya, Pankaj and Urmila live on the separate floors of a 7- floor building. Ground floor is number one; second floor is number two and so on. Each of them goes to a city viz. Paris, Istanbul, Shanghai, Durban, London, Madrid and Dubai but not necessarily in the same order. Only three people live above the floor on which Sanya lives. Only one person lives between Sanya and the one who goes to Paris. Vini lives just below the person who goes to Madrid. Only three people live between the one who goes to Paris and London. The person who goes to Madrid lives on an even numbered floor. Urmila lives just above Rishi. Urmila does not go to London.

The question below consists of a set of labeled sentences. From the four options given, select the most probable sequence to form a coherent paragraph. A. It provides attachment to muscles of thorax, upper extremities, back and diaphragm with the principal organs of respiration( the lungs) and circulation( the heart) located within the thorax. B. The thorax is the upper part of the trunk with neck above and abdomen below. C. The thorax is supported by a skeletal framework called thoracic cage which is osteo-cartilaginous in nature. D. Since both heart and lungs are vital organs for life, the study of thorax is of immense clinical importance.
