Lungs, a vital organ essential to the respiratory system, are one of the largest organs present in the human body. These sac-like structures located within the chest help extract oxygen from the air brought into the lungs while filtering out carbon dioxide from the blood.

After oxygenation, the heart pumps the purified blood into the body. Although mammals, birds, reptiles, some fish, and some snails possess lungs, many insects have a different mechanism to acquire oxygen, via their skin.

It is crucial to protect the lungs from pollutants such as dust, smoke, and germs. Remember to maintain hand hygiene and wear protective gear such as masks and respirators when necessary.

Some animals come equipped with built-in protection, like camels, who have nose hairs that keep dust and sand from blocking their lungs during sandstorms.

Begin your lung-drawing journey by sketching a pair of curved lines that diverge at each end. Connect them at the top to shape the trachea, which links the lungs to the throat.

Drawing lungs made easy! Add two curved lines extending from the bottom of the trachea to form the primary bronchi - large apertures responsible for moving air.

In Step 3 of the Easy Lungs Drawing tutorial, create a set of curved lines adjacent to the first set, resulting in two pairs of opposing lines, signifying the remaining bronchi.

Proceed to Step 4, where you add character and definition to the trachea and bronchi through the inclusion of curved bands.

Step 5 entails the crafting of an asymmetrical silhouette around, and to the rear of, one of your bronchi to outline the first lung.

In Step 6, mirroring the first lung, draw another unique, yet similar, shape to create the second lung.

Lastly, to create the secondary bronchi in Step 7, produce pairs of closely aligned and curved lines extending from the tip and sides of one of the bronchi.
