Lung Volumes & Responses - Exercise Respiratory System

Tidal volume is...

• the volume of air inspired or expired per breath

• the total volume of gas inspired or expired per minute

• the volume of air inspired or expired after a normal breath

• the volume able to forcibly expired, after a normal breath

Pulmonary ventilation is...

• the volume of air/gas inspired or expired per breath

• the total volume of gas/air inspired or expired per minute

• the volume of air/gas inspired or expired after a normal breath

• the volume able to forcibly expired, after a normal breath

Inspiratory reserve volume is...

• the volume of air/gas inspired or expired per breath

• the volume able to be forcibly inspired during normal breathing

• the volume of air/gas inspired or expired after a normal breath

• the volume able to forcibly expired, after a normal breath

Expiratory reserve volume is...

• the volume of air/gas inspired or expired per breath

• the volume able to be forcibly inspired during normal breathing

• the volume of air/gas inspired or expired after a normal breath

• the volume able to forcibly expired, after a normal breath

Residual volume is...

• the volume of air that exits in the lungs after forced maximal expiration

• the volume of air that remains in the lungs after forced maximal expiration

• the volume of air that remains in the lungs after exercising

• the volume of air that remains in the lungs after forced maximal inspiration

Pulmonary ventilation is calculated by...

• Tidal volume (TV) + Breathing rate

• Vital capacity + residual volume

• Vital capacity x residual volume

• Tidal volume (TV) x Breathing rate

Total lung capacity is calculated by...

• Tidal volume (TV) + Breathing rate

• Vital capacity + residual volume

• Vital capacity x residual volume

• Tidal volume (TV) x Breathing rate

Vital capacity is...

• Maximum amount of air expired after maximal inhalation

• Maximum amount of air inspired after maximal inhalation

• Maximum amount of air expired after maximal expiration

• volume of air expired after maximal expiration
