Solution

The correct option is A tidal volume and inspiratory reserve volume
Inspiratory capacity (IC) is the maximum volume of air that can be breathed in after normal expiration. It is the sum of tidal volume and inspiratory reserve volume.
Tidal volume (TV) is the volume of air taken in and out of the lungs during normal breathing.
Inspiratory reserve volume (IRV) is the volume of air that can be inhaled forcefully after a normal inhalation

Q. A patient suffering from a lung disease went to the doctor. Which of the following instruments would the doctor have used for measuring the inspiratory reserve volume and expiratory reserve volume?
Q. 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)
Q.

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)
