YES.
Snakes do not have a diaphragm like people do, so they circulate air in and out of the lungs by narrowing the rib cage to push air out and then widening it again to create a vacuum to suck air in (while feeding). After each breathing cycle, snakes experience apnea -- a stop in breathing -- that lasts from a few seconds to as long as a few minutes. To process the oxygen, all snakes have an elongated right lung; many also have a smaller left lung, and a few even have a third lung along the trachea.
Yes, but in most snakes, including Pythons, only the right lung is functional. Meaning any respitory infection should be handled immediately. Their low metabolism means they require less oxygen and they've evolved to only need and use one lung. Making them hard to constrict, suffocate, or drown.
Yes - and no... in the 'old world' species - like pythons, one of the lungs has shrunken almost to non-existence, so they rely on the use of only one.
The python snake has two lungs and have an additional bone in their heads.
