Bird lungs have the same basic features as human lungs, such as a trachea, bronchi, lungs and capillaries etc, however birds' lungs operate in a cycling of air manner rather than a mixing action as in humans. Human lungs move air into alveoli at the extremities of the lungs and because it would require immense force to reopen a completely deflated alveoli and therefore they are never fully emptied and maintain "dead space". This means that when fresh air is moved in, there is mixing of fresh and dead space air. Birds on the other hand have a linear cycling of air meaning that the maximum amount of oxygen can reach the capillaries and pass into the blood stream. Hence bird respiration is more effective than human's, but in a way it needs to be due to the decreased size and intense need for efficiency during flight etc.
Pigs have 4 lobes in the right lung and 2 lobes in the left lung. Humans have 3 lobes in the right lung and 2 lobes in the left lung.
The difference is that animal lungs are in a different shape depending on their body shape HaX0r
Birds: Breathe in: air goes into AIR SACS. Humans: Breathe in: Air Comes Into the LUNGS. Breathe out: Air Leaves the LUNGS -TwindleZ
They are smaller than we are, and they have a different body frame making it impossible to be the same.
They function the exact same way. A cow's lungs are only different from a human's simply by size: cows have lungs that are a third larger than that of a human's.

What is the difference between the thorax and the diaphragm?
thorax = the part of the human body between the neck and the diaphragm, partially encased by the ribs and containing the heart and lungs; the chest. diaphragm = a body partition of muscle and connective tissue separating the chest and the abdominal cavities.

Is there a difference between children and adults lung capacity?
Yes, children's lungs are smaller than adults lungs.
What is the difference between a female male lungs?
The main biological difference between male and female lungs is size and location within the chest cavity. Typically, male lungs are larger and positioned higher in the chest compared to female lungs. Additionally, there may be variations in lung function and capacity between males and females due to hormonal and anatomical differences.
What are the differences between the respiratory system of aquatic animals and non- aquatic?
The respiratory system of most non-aquatic animals is entirely enclosed in the human body and connected with the lungs. Many aquatic animals have developed open respiratory systems that include features like the gills.
What is the difference between lungs and gills?
nothing
Which animals have lungs and which animals do not?
