Question
From the following relationships between respiratory volume and capacities and mark the correct answer.
- Inspiratory capacity (IC) = Tidal Volume + Residual Volume
- Vital Capacity (VC) = Tidal Volume (TV) + Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV) + Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV).
- Residual Volume (RV) = Vital Capacity (VC) – Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV)
- Tidal Volume (TV) = Inspiratory Capacity (IC) – Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV)

Solution
(i) Incorrect, (ii) Correct, (iii) Incorrect, (iv) Correct
Explanation:
(i) Inspiratory Capacity (IC) = Tidal Volume + Residual Volume - INCORRECT
(ii) Vital Capacity (VC) = Tidal Volume (TV) + Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV) + Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV) - INCORRECT
(iii) Residual Volume (RV) = Vital Capacity (VC) - inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV) - INCORRECT
(iv) Tidal Volume(TV) = Inspiratory Capacity (IC) - Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV) - CORRECT.
