Solution

The correct option is C 3 right and 2 left lobes
Lungs are the respiratory organs which is located in the thoracic cavity. The lungs are covered by the pleural membrane. The right lobe has three lobes, an upper, middle, and a lower, by two fissures, one oblique and one horizontal while the left lung is divided into two lobes, an upper and a lower, by the oblique fissure. The space between the membranes of the lungs is known as pleural cavity which is filled by pleural fluid.
