The gill muscles are now pharyngeal muscles, which pump air instead of water into the lungs. Body wall muscles become modified to pump the air out of the lungs. The lung is more highly vascularized and has more septation than the swim bladder. However, it is still simple compared to the lungs of the higher organisms. C. Reptiles Reptilian lungs show increasing septation and vascularization. The respiratory passage now consists of clearly demarcated areas of the larynx, trachea, and bronchi. The caudal lung segments still extend into the abdominal cavity.
