Read the following statements about respiratory volume and capacities and choose the correct option in respect of true and false.
A
Inspiratory capacity (IC) 
Tidal volume + Residual volume A-F, B-F, C-F, D-T
Tidal volume + Residual volume A-F, B-F, C-F, D-T
B
Vital capacity 
Tidal volume 
Inspiratory reserve volume (IRV) + Expiratory reserve volume (ERV) A-F, B-T, C-F, D-T
Tidal volume Inspiratory reserve volume (IRV) + Expiratory reserve volume (ERV) A-F, B-T, C-F, D-T
C
Residual volume 
Vital capacity 
Inspiratory reserve volume (IRV) A-T, B-T, C-F, D-T
Vital capacity Inspiratory reserve volume (IRV) A-T, B-T, C-F, D-T
D
Tidal volume (TV) = Inspiratory capacity (IC) Inspiratory reserve volume A-T, B-F, C-T, D-F
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Inspiratory capacity 
TV + IRV
Residual volume
