Pneumonia is an infection involving which part of the body?

Kidneys
Heart
Lungs
Liver

The correct answer is: Lungs

Pneumonia is specifically an infection that affects the lungs, making it the correct answer. This condition occurs when the air sacs in the lungs, known as alveoli, become inflamed and fill with fluid or pus due to an infectious agent, which can include bacteria, viruses, or fungi. Symptoms often include cough, fever, difficulty breathing, and chest pain, all of which are directly related to lung function and health. Understanding pneumonia in the context of the respiratory system highlights its impact on oxygen exchange and overall respiratory efficiency, underlining why the lungs are the primary affected organ.
