Hello students, theory solving a question in biology.
00:03
As you can see if you have given us that pneumonia and lung cancer is resulting in plural effusion.
00:10
And plural effusion is nothing but filling up a plural cavity with fluids.
00:14
So the actual question they're asking us is, what are the effects of plural effusion or ventilation? now if you see, lung cancer is a type of adenocarsinoma as well as form a cell carcinoma due to alveolar cells.
00:27
Now if you see both pneumonia, both pneumonia and lung cancer results in wanting, okay, infection of cells.
00:43
Both pneumonia and lung cancer results in infection of cells.
00:49
The difference is pneumonia is communicable and it is transmittable and lung cancer is not transmittable and it's acquired due to random mutations.
00:57
Now when this infection of cell occurs, okay, when certain cells are infected in the body, the wbcs, the leukocytes, okay? the leukocytes, especially the b and t cells, will be going to the target region where the cells are infected.
01:15
And then they will be starting the activity of phagocytuses.
01:19
The wbcs will be starting the activity of phagocytuses where they will be engulfing the engulfing the infected cells.
01:35
But what happens is the body will start sensing the damage and in order to avoid its damage, the body starts secreting fluid.
01:46
Okay.
01:47
There will be fluid accumulation in lungs primarily due to the infected cells as well as the action of wbcs and its phagocytistic action.
01:56
And when there is fluid accumulation in the lungs, the alveoli will stop working.
02:01
There will be hindrance in the function of alveoli.
02:06
Hindrance in functioning of alveoli and therefore the lungs will be filled by the fluid.
02:16
Therefore a person will have heavy difficulty in breathing and at the end when the conditions lead to the world's worst state then the person will be dying due to this condition and this is what we call as plural effusion.
02:29
Okay.
02:31
The filling up of the pleura with this fluid is called as plural effusion.
02:37
And this type of effusion may cause you to become breathless.
02:42
Plural effusion can cause you to become breathless because they accumulate and hindrance in functioning of alveolite.
02:51
The fluid can be drained if necessary.
02:54
But we have to know there are two thin membranes in the chest, one lining the lungs and one lining the chest wall.
03:01
Now, plural effusion itself is not a disease.
03:05
We have to note that plural effusion itself is not a disease.
03:17
It's not a disease.
03:18
Rather, it's a result of many different diseases.
03:21
Anyone who develops one of the many conditions that can produce the effusion may be affected...
