25

50

65

85

12. Tidal volume during exercise compared to rest

remains the same

increases

decreases

fluctuates randomly

13. Pulmonary airflow depends on

pressure differences between alveolar and abdominal air

pressure differences between ambient air and pulmonary air

the action of the trachea muscle

none of the above

14. Alveolar ventilation refers to

The total volume of air breathed per minute

The total volume of oxygen exchanged between arterial and venous blood

That portion of the VE that enters the alveoli and is involved in gaseous exchange with the blood

None of the above

15. The volume of air that remains in the lungs after a maximal voluntary expiration is

the expiratory reserve volume

the tidal volume

the residual volume

the inspiratory reserve volume

16. Norms for lung volume measurements should be

expressed relative to body density

based on age and height

based on age, sex and height

based on percent body fat

none of the above

This compound augments the blood’s oxygen carrying capacity more than 60 times that carried dissolved in plasma

anhydrase

plasma

hemoglobin

bicarbonate

18. Hemoglobin saturation changes very little until the PO2 falls below ____ mm Hg

80

60

40

20

19. The small amount of oxygen dissolved in plasma

Explanation / Answer

11. During maximal large muscle exercise like running, blood flow to active muscle tissue represents as much as ____ % of total cardiac output

Answer: 85%

12. Tidal volume during exercise compared to rest

Answer: increases ( tidal volume is the depth of breathing. so when the rate of breathing increases. tidal volume also increases.)

13. Pulmonary airflow depends on

Answer: pressure differences between ambient air and pulmonary air

14. Alveolar ventilation refers to

Answer: That portion of the VE that enters the alveoli and is involved in the gaseous exchange with the blood.

15. The volume of air that remains in the lungs after a maximal voluntary expiration is

Answer: the residual volume

16. Norms for lung volume measurements should be

Answer: none of the above ( it is measured using spirometry analysis, which is based on the individual's breathing pattern)

17. This compound augments the blood’s oxygen-carrying capacity more than 60 times that carried

Answer: hemoglobin

18. Hemoglobin saturation changes very little until the PO2 falls below ____ mm Hg

Answer: 60mmHg

19. The small amount of oxygen dissolved in plasma

Answer: establishes the PO2 in the blood, thus determining the oxygenation and deoxygenation of hemoglobin.

20. The approximate percentages of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen in ambient air are

Answer: 21% oxygen, 0.03% carbon dioxide and 79% nitrogen.
