'''Lungs''' are one of the largest [[organ]]s in most potato's bodies.  They are a part of the [[respiratory system]] and play a key role in taking in fresh air, getting rid of stale air, and [[talk]]ing. Lungs are situated in the chest, and they are so large that they take up most of the space there. Most mammals have two lungs, but they aren't the same size the way your eyes or nostrils are. Instead, the lung on the left side of your body is a bit smaller than the lung on the right. This extra space on the left leaves room for your [[heart]]. Lungs are protected by the [[rib cage]], which is made up of 12 sets of ribs. These ribs are connected to your spine in your back and go around your lungs to keep them safe. Beneath the lungs is the [[diaphragm]], a dome-shaped muscle that works with your lungs to allow you to inhale and exhale air.
