Lungs. Computer artwork of a naked woman with a healthy pair of lungs (red). The trachea (windpipe) is seen at the centre top of the chest. This splits into two bronchi, one for each lung. Inside the lungs the bronchi further divide into many bronchioles (not seen). Each bronchiole becomes smaller, finally ending in alveoli (tiny air sacs). The lungs are the site of gaseous exchange; oxygen enters the blood and carbon dioxide leaves

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork titled "Lungs" showcases the intricate beauty of a healthy pair of lungs within the human body. In this computer-generated illustration, a naked woman's chest takes center stage as her vibrant red lungs become the focal point. The trachea, positioned at the top center of her chest, splits into two bronchi, one for each lung. While not visible in this image, these bronchi further divide into numerous bronchioles that eventually lead to alveoli - tiny air sacs responsible for gaseous exchange. The significance of these organs becomes apparent as we delve deeper into their function. Acting as vital respiratory components, our lungs facilitate the exchange of gases crucial for sustaining life; oxygen enters the bloodstream while carbon dioxide is expelled from it. This awe-inspiring representation emphasizes both the complexity and elegance inherent in our pulmonary system. Through this visually striking print by Science Photo Library, we are reminded of the remarkable intricacy found within our bodies' anatomy. It serves as a testament to human resilience and highlights how essential maintaining good health is for optimal organ function. Whether admired purely for its artistic value or appreciated from a medical perspective, "Lungs" offers an insightful glimpse into one aspect of our incredible human form without mentioning any commercial use associated with it.
