In your biology class, you may have learned that lungs help us breathe while bone marrow, found in flat bones such as the hip bone, produces red and white blood cells through a process called hematopoiesis. Now, University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) researchers have discovered that in addition to being a crucial part of our respiratory system, lungs also play a major role in the production and storage of blood cells.

        So... does all of our blood come from lungs? Did you know that the more you slouch, the more your lungs crinkle, which makes its smaller and weaker?

                      This is very interesting but try summarizing this into 2-4 paragraphs for a science grade.
