Solution

Tidal volme Vital capacity

Tidal volume is the amount of air that moves in or out of the lungs with each respiratory cycle . Vital capacity ( VC) is the maximum amount of air a person can expel from the lungs after a maximum inspiration and expiration .

The value for tidal volume is 500 ml . The value for vital capacity is 3500-4500 ml .

From the following relationships between respiratory volume and capacities, mark the correct option.

(i) Inspiratory Capacity (IC) = Tidal Volume + Residual Volume

(ii) Vital Capacity (VC) = Tidal Volume (TV) + Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV) + Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV).

(iii) Residual Volume (RV) = Vital Capacity (VC) - Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV)

(iv) Tidal Volume (TV) = Inspiratory Capacity (IC) - Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV)
