Question

The lungs are _______.




A. connected by the mediastinum


B. separated by the mediastinum


C. divided into seven lobes


D. divided into nine lobes

Answer 1

Well, let's check all three answers to see which one is correct x3. Starting off with (D) and (C), we know these two are incorrect since we already know the lungs is divided into THREE lobes, the upper, middle, and lower lobes, NOT nine. So, we can eliminate (C) and (D). We can also eliminate (A) since we already know the lungs are connected by the TRACHEA. So, that leaves us with our correct answer as (B) separated by the mediastinum.
