Solution

The correct option is B A, C, D
During the process of inspiration external inter coastal muscles contract and diaphragm contract simultaneously. A healthy man can inspire or expire approximately 6000 to 8000 mL of air per minute. Functional residual capacity (FRC) is the volume of air that will remain in the lungs after a normal expiration. It is the sum of expiratory reserve volume and residual volume. Total lung capacity is the total volume of air accomodated in the lungs after the forced inspiration. So, the correct option is A.
