Suppose a person has a total lung capacity of 5,800 mL,a residual volume of 1,200 mL, an inspiratory reservevolume of 2,400 mL, and an expiratory reserve volume of1,400 mL. Calculate his tidal volume.

If there are 3x10^8 alveoli in a lung with a functional residual capacity of 2.5 liters, calculate the average volume of an alveolus.

Which of the following lung volumes can be measured using spirometry?  expiratory reserve volume  tidal volume  inspiratory reserve volume residual volume vital capacity

Match the following volumes and capacities with their descriptions.   Tidal Volume (TV) Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV) Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV) Residual Volume (RV) Functional Residual Capacity (FRC) Vital Capacity (VC) Total Lung Capacity (TLC) Forced Expiratory Volume (FEV1) Alveolar Ventilation Rate (AVR) Anatomical Dead Space (ADS)   _____TV + ERV + IRV + RV _____RV + ERV; the volume of air that remains in the lungs during normal breathing _____The amount of air that enters and leaves the lungs during normal breathing _____The amount of air in addition to tidal volume that enters the lungs during a forced inspiration _____The frequency of breathing x (TV – Anatomical Dead Space) _____The amount of air in addition to tidal volume that is evacuated during forced expiration _____The amount of air forced out in the first second following a maximal inspiration. _____TV + ERV + IRV; represents the maximum volume of air that the lungs can exchange _____The amount of air that…
