. Dadd's theory and practice of veterinary medicine and surgery. Veterinary medicine. DISEASES OF RESPIRATORY PASSAGES AND ORGANS. 89 twelve per minute, varying, however, according to the tempera- ment of the animal and the condition he may be in at the time of making the observation; while in horses the respirations are more frequent, varying in health, and when at rest, from fourteen to twenty-five; yet, under excitement and disease, they sometimes number over one THE CONTENTS OF THE THORAX. Explanation.—Fig. 1, Trachte ; 2, Bifurcation of the carotid artery; 3, Internal carotid artery; i i, Anterior lobes of the lungs; 5 5, Posterior lobes of the lungs; 6, The heart; 7, Coronary artery; 8, Cartilages of the false ribs; 9, The diaphragm.
