Fig.1: Right pleural cavity

Explanation of Solution

The term “plura” refers to the “lungs”. In humans, there exists a pair of lungs on either side of the mediastinum. Each lung is covered by the two layers of pleurae (visceral and parietal) and the space between these two membranes is known as the pleural cavity. The lung that is present in the right side of the body includes the right pleural cavity that includes the right lung. The plural cavity is also known as the “plural space”. It is a thin cavity enclosing a fluid called plural fluid that helps in lubrication and helps the pleural membrane to slide effortlessly during respiration.
