Question:

Complete the missing terms
a. Inspiratory Capacity (IC) = _____ +IRV
b. ___________________ = TV + ERV
c. Functional Residual Capacity (FRC) = ERV + ____

Answer:

  1. Inspiratory capacity (IC) = Tidal volume (TV) + Inspiratory Reserve volume (IRV)
  2. Expiratory capacity (EC) = Tidal volume (TV) + Expiratory Reserve volume (ERV)
  3. Functional Residual Capacity (FRC) = Residual volume (RV) + Expiratory Reserve volume (ERV)

Tidal volume is the volume of air normally inspired or expired in one breath without any effort which is about 500 ml. Residual volume is some air always remains in the lungs even after forcible respiration, this amount of air is known as residual volume which is about 1500ml. IC is the total volume of air which can be inhaled after a normal expiration which is about 2500 to 3000ml. FRC is about 2500 to 3000ml. ERV is the extra amount of air which can be exhaled forcibly after a normal expiration which is about 1000- 1500 ml.
