Options
- AA-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
- BA-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
- CA-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III
- DA-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III
Correct answer
C. A-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III
Step-by-step solution
Inspiratory Capacity (IC) is the total volume of air a person can inspire after a normal expiration. It includes tidal volume and inspiratory reserve volume. Thus, IC = TV + IRV (A II). Functional Residual Capacity (FRC) is the volume of air that remains in the lungs after a normal expiration. It includes expiratory reserve volume and residual volume. Thus, FRC = ERV + RV (B I). Vital Capacity (VC) is the maximum volume of air a person can breathe in after a forced expiration or breathe out after a forced inspirati
