The human lungs (UEB Contracted)
This diagram shows the lungs and the respiratory tract seen from the front. A locator dot and title are shown. These must always be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. At the top centre of the image is the hyoid bone, which lies at the back of the mouth where the throat begins. The first part of the tract is wider as it is shared with the start of the food passageway. The cartilage of the larynx is followed by thick lines of cartilage which are the rings that keep the trachea open. In the centre of the image, the trachea divides into the left and right bronchi which lead to the left and right lungs. The right lung (on the left of the page) has three lobes. The left lung (on the right of the page) has two lobes. The bottom left of this lung has a large curved indentation which is where the heart is positioned.

Cross section of the left human lung (UEB Uncontracted)
This diagram shows the left lung, its bronchus and part of the trachea seen from the front and surrounded by an image border. A locator dot and title are shown. These must always be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. In the top left of the diagram the lower part of the trachea runs down the page a short way, before dividing into the two bronchi. The left bronchus goes down and to the right of the page, and enters the left lung. It divides many times into bronchioles, each of which ends in an alveolus.

The human respiratory system (UEB Uncontracted)
This diagram shows the anatomy of the human respiration system. A locator dot and title are shown. These must always be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. There is an outline of the head, the chest and upper arms surrounded by an image border. The chest is facing you and the head is turned to face the left side of the page. The head is shown in cross section so you can follow the respiratory tract in through the nose, and just below, in through the mouth past the teeth and tongue to join the nasal passageway at the back of the throat. The tract branches left as the respiratory tract and oesophagus (food pathway) split. Only the beginning of the oesophagus is shown. After this split the respiratory tract widens, this is where the larynx (voice box) is. The neck and chest are shown opened but not in cross section so the external appearance of the organs can be seen. The respiratory tract goes down and in the centre of the image splits into two smaller tracts, one going to the lung on the left and one to the lung on the right. The respiratory tract has rings of cartilage so the pathway is kept open. The heart can be found between the lower parts of the lungs. Below this is a thick line representing the diaphragm. The cut sections of the ribs surround the lungs to the left and right.

Red Grouse (Large Print)
by Rnib BookshareThis is a Red Grouse shown from the side. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. Its head, which is facing to the left, has a short blunt beak. One eye is visible, and above this, is its distinctive red wattle. Slightly down and to the right of the head is the wing. Down from this is the Grouse's chest, and down again are its two sturdy legs. To the very right of the picture its short tail can be found. The Red Grouse is covered with chestnut brown feathers.
