Solution

The correct option is C A – III; B – IV; C – I; D – II
  • Residual Volume (RV), about 1,200 mL, is the volume of air still remaining in the lungs after the expiratory reserve volume is exhaled.
  • The Vital Capacity (VC), about 4,500 mL, is the total amount of air that can be expired after fully inhaling (VC = TV + IRV + ERV = approximately 80 percent TLC). The value varies according to age and body size.
  • The Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV), about 2,500 mL, is the additional air that can be forcibly inhaled after the inspiration of a normal tidal volume.
  • The Inspiratory Capacity (IC), about 3,500 mL, is the maximum amount of air that can be inspired (IC = TV + IRV).
