(b)Inspiratory reserve volume
(IRV)
Expiratory reserve volume (ERV)
1. It is the maximum volume of air that can be inhaled after a normal inspiration.
2. It is about 2500 - 3500 mL in the human lungs.
1. It is the maximum volume of air that can be exhaled after a normal expiration.
2. It is about 1000 - 1100 mL in the human lungs.
(c)Inspiratory capacity
(IC)
Expiratory capacity
(EC)
1. It is the volume of air that can be inhaled after a normal expiration.
2. It includes tidal volume and inspiratory reserve volume.
IC = TV + IRV
1. It is the volume of air that can be exhaled after a normal inspiration.
2. It includes tidal volume and expiratory reserve volume. EC = TV + ERV
