What’s going on in the lungs?

With the help of the lungs, breathing occurs. The lungs do not just drive air back and forth, gas exchange takes place in the lungs, which does not stop either at night or during the day. This is one of the most important processes in any organism. Thanks to the lungs, the composition of the air that a person or any other organism inhales changes. In the process of breathing, muscles and, of course, the diaphragm are involved. As the diaphragm contracts, pressure decreases and air enters the lungs. When you exhale, the lungs themselves push the carbon dioxide out.
