1) Expiratory capacity (EC) is the sum of ________ and ________.

A) expiratory reserve volume (ERV); residual volume (RV)

B) tidal volume (TV); expiratory reserve volume (ERV)

C) inspiratory reserve volume (IRV); expiratory reserve volume (ERV)

D) tidal volume (TV); inspiratory reserve volume (IRV)

E) tidal volume (TV); residual volume (RV)

2) The volume of air remaining in the lungs after a tidal expiration is called the

A) expiratory reserve volume (ERV).

B) residual volume (RV).

C) vital capacity (VC).

D) anatomic dead space.

E) functional residual capacity (FRC).

3) Which of the following is not true of the vital capacity (VC)?

A) It can be calculated by adding the inspiratory reserve volume and the expiratory reserve volume.

B) It can be measured on a spirometer by taking a maximal inspiration, and then maximally expiring into the spirometer mouthpiece.

C) Restrictive lung disease, such as pulmonary fibrosis, can cause a decrease in VC.

D) Vital capacity (VC) is a larger volume than functional residual capacity (FRC).

E) All of these are true of the vital capacity.

4) Inspiratory capacity (IC) cannot be measured with a spirometer.

5) Total lung capacity (TLC) cannot be measured with a spirometer.

6) Which of the following is not a use for oxygen in the body?

A) To generate ATP for energy

B) Aerobic respiration of food molecules

C) To break down nutrients into their building blocks

D) Anaerobic breakdown of glucose

E) All of these are uses for oxygen in the body.

7) Which of the following respiratory volumes and capacities has the lowest volume?

A) Expiratory reserve volume (ERV)

B) Residual volume (RV)

C) Tidal volume (TV)

D) Functional residual capacity (FRC)

E) Inspiratory reserve volume (IRV)

8) A respiratory capacity is the sum of two or more volumes.

9) Which of the following is not a correct formula for calculating total lung capacity (TLC)?

A) VC + RV

B) IC + FRC

C) IRV + TV + ERV + RV

D) IC + EC

E) All of these are correct formulae for calculating total lung capacity (TLC).

10) Obstructive lung diseases, such as chronic bronchitis, often cause an elevation in the functional residual capacity (FRC) and the residual volume (RV).

11) In the experimental analysis, the difference in amplitude between the peak of a normal inspiration and the peak of the maximal inspiration would represent the

A) inspiratory reserve volume (IRV).

B) tidal volume (TV). 

C) inspiratory capacity (IC).

D) expiratory reserve volume (ERV).

E) functional residual capacity (FRC).

12) The expiatory reserve volume (ERV) is a much larger volume than the inspiratory reserve volume (IRV).

13) If you exhaled normally into the environment, and then blew all of the air that you could into a balloon, the volume of air in the balloon would represent the

A) functional residual capacity (FRC).

B) expiratory capacity (EC).

C) inspiratory reserve volume (IRV).

D) vital capacity (VC).

E) expiratory reserve volume (ERV).
