Measuring Lung Capacity

Breathing is a way of bringing useful gasses into our bodies and getting waste gasses out of our bodies.

Mammals (including humans) have a pair of lungs which they use for breathing. Most mammals live on land however some mammals, such as whales, live under water. Humpback whales, like the one at National Museum Cardiff, use their lungs to breathe air, just like humans.
