Standard atmospheric pressure is ____ mm Hg | 760 |
The PCO2 in the atmosphere is | less than in the alveolar air |
Excessive fluid in the pleural cavity would be most likely to cause | decreased vital capacity |
The term used to describe the volume of air exchanged during normal inspiration andn expiration is | tidal volume |
