Question

Match List I with List II :

List I List II
A. Expiratory capacity I. Expiratory reserve volume + Tidal volume + Inspiratory reserve volume
B. Functional residual capacity II. Tidal volume + Expiratory reserve volume
C. Vital capacity III. Tidal volume + Inspiratory reserve volume
D. Inspiratory capacity IV. Expiratory reserve volume + Residual volume

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Options

A.A-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III
B.A-I, B-III, C-II, D-IV
C.A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
D.A-III, B-II, C-IV, D-I

Solution

Sol. [Key Concept: Lung volumes and capacities]

Expiratory capacity = TV + ERV (A–II). Functional residual capacity = ERV + RV (B–IV). Vital capacity = IRV + TV + ERV (C–I). Inspiratory capacity = TV + IRV (D–III). TV denotes tidal volume; IRV, ERV and RV denote inspiratory reserve, expiratory reserve and residual volume. Hence, option (3).
