Summary Introduction
To review:
The meanings of biological terminologies “TV (tidal volume), VC (vital capacity) and ERV (expiratory reserve volume)” must be explained.
Introduction:
Lungs are vital organs, which play a considerable role in the respiratory system. The prime function of this organ is that it provides the site for the exchange of gases and also takes part in the respiration process. The volumes and the capacity of air entering the lungs can be measured.
