After catching her archenemy, Xena has lived a long and productive life. She is now 85 years old and has suffered gradual changes to her rib cage: there has been calcification and reduced motility of the rib articulations. She finds herself short of breath when trying to perform actions that previously caused her no difficulty.
Describe the changes the deteriorating condition of her ribcage causes on her respiratory function and explain how these changes result in her shortness of breath. In your answer, discuss an expected change to one lung volume or capacity.
