Describe the structure of a dog's lung:

a)

Trachea travels down the throat alongside the oesophagus and branches into 2 bronchi which then enter the lung itself. Within the lung tissue these branch into numerous bronchioles which have alveoli at the end of them. These filter through the lung tissue itself to create multiple air pockets that can expand and deflate as the dog breathes.

b)

Oxygen rich air is taken to the lungs, travels to the alveoli where the oxygen moves across into the surrounding blood capillaries by diffusion. As the oxygen moves into the blood, carbon dioxide moves the other way by diffusion from the blood into the alveoli. This carbon dioxide rich air is taken out of the body.
