This schematic shows the human lungs and bronchial tree with a lobar region collapsed distal to an airway blockage. In the respiratory system hierarchy, alveoli within a pulmonary lobe (organ-level structure) are depicted without aeration due to bronchial obstruction. In anatomy and pathology, the image illustrates obstructive atelectasis, which decreases ventilation and leads to V/Q (ventilation–perfusion) mismatch, reducing arterial oxygenation. The entity is an organ (lungs) located in the thoracic cavity of Homo sapiens (human), responsible for gas exchange between inhaled air and pulmonary capillary blood.
