The right lung has three lobes and the left only two, and the left is the smaller of the pair. The reason lies between them: the heart sits slightly to the left, so the left lung makes room for it with a curved hollow called the cardiac notch. Below the notch, a thin tongue of lung tissue, the lingula, curves over the front of the heart. Surgeons, radiologists and anyone reading a chest X-ray learn to expect this lopsided pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"margin-top:2em;\"\u003eExplore Related Human Anatomy Jewelry\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sciencejewelry1824.shop\/products\/lungs\"\u003elungs necklace | silver\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sciencejewelry1824.shop\/products\/alveolus-necklace-gold-vermeil\"\u003ealveolus necklace | gold vermeil\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sciencejewelry1824.shop\/products\/rib-cage-necklace-gold-vermeil\"\u003erib cage necklace | gold vermeil\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sciencejewelry1824.shop\/products\/heart-18k-gold-plated\"\u003eanatomical heart necklace | gold vermeil\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"margin-top:2em;\"\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin-top:1.75em;\"\u003eHow big is the pendant, and what chain comes with it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pendant is 21 mm (about 0.8 inches), about the size of a US nickel and a little smaller than a 1-euro coin. It hangs from a single loop and sits just below the collarbone. The chain is 45 cm (17.7 inches) of gold vermeil with a lobster clasp and a 5 cm (2 inch) extender. 18K gold vermeil means 2.5 microns of 18K gold over solid sterling silver, nickel-free and hypoallergenic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin-top:1.75em;\"\u003eIs there a silver version?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The lungs necklace also comes in sterling silver, at the same 21 mm, on a 45 cm sterling silver chain with the same 5 cm extender. Both hang from a single loop and sit just below the collarbone.

Examining a young woman with heart trouble, he felt it improper to press his ear to her chest. Instead he rolled a sheet of paper into a tube, put one end on her chest and the other to his ear, and heard the heart more clearly than ever. He went on to build wooden versions and spent years matching the sounds of the lungs to what he later found at autopsy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n","brand":"sciencejewelry1824","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57028633919874,"sku":"NK0419-GV","price":260.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1411\/4806\/files\/lungs-gold-vermeil.png?v=1794393368","url":"https:\/\/sciencejewelry1824.shop\/products\/lungs-gold-vermeil","provider":"sciencejewelry1824","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
