For adult male) Tidal volume minus dead space Dead air space - Correct Answer Anatomically: structures that hold air, but can't participate in gas exchange.
Physiologically: alveoli or capillaries destroyed by disease
Expiratory reserve volume - Correct Answer Amount of gas that can be forcefully expired at the end of a normal expiration Inspiratory reserve volume - Correct Answer Amount of gas that can be forcefully inspired in addition to a normal breaths tidal volume Internal respiration - Correct Answer Exchange of gases between blood cells and tissues Peak expiratory flow - Correct Answer The greatest rate of airflow during forced expiration when lungs are fully inflated Residual volume - Correct Answer After maximal forced exhalation, amount of air remaining not able to be expelled Tidal volume - Correct Answer Amount of air in a respiratory cycle (500 ml, 5-7ml/kg) Minute volume - Correct Answer Amount of gas moved in and out of respiratory tract per minute Air trapping - Correct Answer A respiratory pattern associated with an obstruction in the pulmonary tree.
