2) How many lobes do the lungs have? Why do you think that one side has fewer lobes than the other? There are 5 lobes in the lungs: 2 on the left, and 3 on the right. The left lung only has only 2 lobes because there has to be enough room in the chest for the heart, and the heart sits mostly behind the left lung.
Full Text. The lungs are located in two chambers of the thoracic cavity on either side of the heart. Though similar in appearance, the two lungs are not identical, nor wholly symmetrical. Fissures are double folds of pleura that divide the lung into lobes. There are three lobes in the right lung and two in the left lung. The lobes are further divided into segments and then into lobules, which are hexagonal divisions of the lungs that are the smallest visible subdivision.
