Read each question carefully and answer to the best of your ability. Use the provided diagram of the human lungs to assist you.
1. The volume of air inhaled or exhaled during normal breathing is called the .
2. After a normal exhalation, the amount of air that can still be forcibly exhaled is the .
3. The total amount of air that can be exhaled after a maximal inhalation is known as the .
4. The air that always remains in the lungs, even after a forceful exhalation, is the .
1. Which of the following lung volumes represents the amount of air that can be inhaled beyond a normal tidal inhalation?
Expiratory Reserve Volume
Residual Volume
Inspiratory Reserve Volume
Tidal Volume
2. Vital Capacity is the sum of which three lung volumes?
Tidal Volume + Residual Volume + ERV
