Correct answer
Explanation
The right lung is larger and takes in more air than the left lung. This is because the left lung is smaller to accommodate the heart, which is positioned slightly to the left side of the chest. The right lung typically has three lobes while the left has only two, giving it greater volume and air capacity.
