Answer: B.

The right lung is larger than the left lung.

Explanation:

Only one statement from the question is false, and it is the statement that the right lung is larger than the left lung.

Other statements are considering true facts. ( Statements A, C, and D).

The right lung is shorter, not larger than the left lung. It is wider but it is also shorter and that is why the left lung is occupying a smaller volume than the other lung.

The Anatomy of both lungs is asymmetrical, that is why one is short and one is not but the anatomy of both lungs is also similar in many cases.
