Across
- 1. Cluster of alveoli sharing a common opening at the end of a duct.
- 4. Diagonal groove separating lobes of the right lung.
- 5. Tiny air sacs where oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged with blood.
- 7. Final airway of the conducting zone that leads into gas-exchange structures.
- 11. Broad, inferior surface of the lung resting on the diaphragm.
- 13. Immune organ in the chest, prominent in youth, located near the trachea.
- 15. Small openings that allow air movement between adjacent alveoli.
- 16. Small passageway connecting respiratory bronchioles to clusters of alveoli.
- 17. Windpipe; rigid airway that carries air from the larynx to the bronchi.
- 18. The pointed top portion of the lung extending above the clavicle.
- 19. Muscular organ between the lungs that pumps blood through the body.
- 20. Dome-shaped muscle below lungs essential for breathing movements.
Down
- 2. First airways where gas exchange begins; branch off terminal bronchioles.
- 3. Middle section of the right lung, unique to that side.
- 6. Lower section of the left lung beneath the oblique fissure.
- 8. Slanted division separating the two lobes of the left lung.
- 9. Upper section of the right lung, separated by fissures.
- 10. Line dividing the right lung’s superior and middle lobes.
