In the right lung, the upper lobeis subdivided by a second fissure. This lung is larger andshorter than the left. It has three lobes, while the left hasonly two. Fig. Fig. 89.

Each lung is enclosed, and its structure maintained,by a serous membrane, called the pleura, which invests it asfar as the root, and is thence reflected upon the walls of thechest. The lungs, however, are on the outside of the pleura,in the same way as the head is on the outside of a cap doubledupon itself. The reflected pleurae in the middle of th
