Resource summary

Question 1

Question
What is the average total lung capacity?
Answer
  • 5 litres
  • 4.5 litres
  • 6 litres
  • 4 litres

Question 2

Question
Normal breathing, also known as the [blank_start]tidal[blank_end] volume, has an average volume of [blank_start]300[blank_end]-500 cm3.
Answer
  • tidal
  • 300

Question 3

Question
Both maximum inspiration and maximum expiration has an average volume of 3.5 dm3.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 4

Question
Residual air, which is not [blank_start]removed[blank_end] so to keep lungs [blank_start]inflated[blank_end], has an average volume of [blank_start]1.5[blank_end]dm3.
Answer
  • removed
  • inflated
  • 1.5

Question 5

Question
A spirometer measure oxygen in hameolobin.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 6

Question
Spirometer: If a person breathes [blank_start]in[blank_end], removes air from the box, the lid will drop causing the pen to drop. This is [blank_start]in[blank_end]halation. When they breathe out, the lid will [blank_start]rise[blank_end] and pen rises. This is [blank_start]ex[blank_end]halation. Over time, the chamber air content will [blank_start]fall[blank_end] as the CO2 is absorbed by [blank_start]soda[blank_end] lime and oxygen is removed. Then O2 consumption can be calculated. The graph line will go [blank_start]down[blank_end] as oxygen decreasesin the chamber. One curved "u-shape" is one [blank_start]breath[blank_end], showing inhalation and exhalation. People with a[blank_start]sthm[blank_end]a or COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) should not take part.
Answer
  • in
  • in
  • rise
  • ex
  • fall
  • soda
  • down
  • breath
  • sthm

Question 7

Question
What is added to a spirometer to absorb carbon dioxide from the air as you exhale?
Answer
  • iodine
  • soda lime
  • sodium carbonate
  • cyanide

Question 8

Question
Which gas is absorbed into the blood stream from the air that you inhale?
Answer
  • carbon dioxide
  • nitrogen
  • oxygen
  • water vapour

Question 9

Question
What happens to the total volume of gas in the chamber of a spirometer as you inhale and exhale?
Answer
  • it decreases
  • it increases
  • it doesn't change

Question 10

Question
Why does the total volume of gas in the chamber of a spirometer decrease as you inhale and exhale?
Answer
  • CO2 absorbed by soda lime and o2 absorbed by person
  • CO2 and O2 absorbed by soda lime
  • CO2 absorbed by person and O2 absorbed by soda lime
  • Leaks in the gas chamber

Question 11

Question
What happens to oxygen consumption as a result of excercise? Can you explain why?
Answer
  • O2 consumption decreases as muscles respire less and require less O2.
  • O2 consumption remains the same as muscles have reserves of O2.
  • O2 comsumption increases as muscles respire more and require more O2.
  • O2 consumption increases as muscles respire less and the brain requires more O2.
