According to Boyle's law, the product of pressure and volume is a constant. Hence,
if volume of lungs is increased, the pressure decreases disproportionately
if volume of lungs is increased, the pressure remains the same
if volume of lungs is increased, the pressure decreases proportionately
if volume of lungs is increased, the pressure also increases proportionately

Choose the correct statements with regard to human respiration.
I. Inspiration is facilitated by the contraction of phrenic and internal intercostal muscles.
II. Healthy human can inhale or exhale about 2000 to 3000 mL of air per minute.
III. Functional residual capacity represent the volume of left out air in lungs after expiration.
IV. Total lung capacity is the total volume of air that can be accomodated in the lung after forced inspiration.
The correct answer is
I, III
II, IV
III, IV
I, II
After forceful inspiration, the amount of air that can be breathed out by maximum forced expiration is equal to
Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV) + Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV) + Tidal Volume (TV) + Residual Volume (RV)
IRV + RV + ERV
IRV + TV + ERV
TV + RV + ERV

The figure shows a diagrammatic view of human respiratory system with labels A, B, C and D. Select the option, which gives correct identification and main function and/or characteristic.
A - trachea - long tube supported by complete cartilaginous rings for conducting inspired air
B - pleural membrane-surround ribs on both sides to provide cushion against rubbing
C - alveoli - thin walled vascular bag-like structures for exchange of gases
D - lower end of lungs - diaphragm pulls it down during inspiration
