Question
Answer
Tidal volume   Amt of air in a single inspiration or expiration  
🗑
Functional residual Capacity   Vol. of air that remains in the lungs @ the end of normal respiration  
🗑
Vital capacity   Max. amount of air expelled from lungs after max. inhalation  
🗑
Residual volume   Amount of air remaining in the lungs after max. expiration  
🗑
Total Lung Capacity   Max. volume of air in lungs after max. inspiration  
🗑
Forced Expiratory Volume   Volume that has been exhaled @ the end of the 1st second of forced expiration  
🗑
Forced vital capacity   Vol change of lungs between a full inspiration and a max. inspiration  
🗑
FEV1/FVC ratio   Proportion of a person's vital capacity that they are able to expire in 1st second of forced expiration  
🗑
Boyle's Law   Pressure is inversely proportional to the volume  
🗑
Pouiseuille's Law   States that the flow (Q) of fluid is related to a number of factors: the viscosity (n) of the fluid, the pressure gradient across the tubing (P), and the length (L) and diameter(r) of the tubing.  
🗑
Law of Laplace   P=2T/r  
🗑
Dalton's Law   Total pressure = sum of partial pressures  
🗑
Henry's Law   Solubility of a gas depends on partial pressure of gas in air & solubility coefficient of air in liquid  
🗑
Fick's Law   Amount of gas diffusing in unit time through the resistance of a barrier is inversely proportional to the thickness of barrier and is directly proportional to the thickness of the SA, diffusion constant and partial pressure diff.  
🗑
Graham's Law   The rate of diffusion is directly proportional to the solubility coefficient of the gas & inversely proportional to the square root of its molecular weight  
🗑
Minute ventilation   Vol. of gas inhaled or exhaled in a min  
🗑
VO2 max   Maximum amount of O2 that an individual can utilize during peak exercise  
🗑
Pulmonary ventilation   Vol. of air that moves in/out of lungs per minute  
🗑
Alveolar ventilation   Exchange of gas between alveoli and external environment  
🗑
Dead space   Space occupied by conducting airways (trachea, bronchi, bronchioles)  
🗑
Diffusion capacity   Used to see how well lungs are able to extract O2 from inhaled air  
🗑
