What distinguishes lung capacities, as a group, from lung volumes?

What does “restrictive lung disorder” mean? What does “obstructive lung disorder” mean? Which type of respiratory disease would be associated with a lower-than-normal vital capacity? Why? Which type of respiratory disease would be associated with a lower-than-normal FEV1? Why?

How does idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis change the structure of the lungs, and how will this affect gas exchange?

Distinguish between Vital capacity and Total lung capacity.

The functional unit of the lung, where gas exchange occurs, is the

Identify the incorrect statemnt about lung volumes  (A) upon maximal exhalation, the tidal volume, expiratory reserve volume, and residual volume are exhaled from the lungs  (B) tidal inhalation is the non forced inspiration of air into the lungs  (C) lung volumes is especially ddependent on height  (D)  the vital capacity is from the peak of inspiratory reserve volume to the peak of expiratory reserve volume

What three factors control how much and how fast oxygen diffuses from the alveoli to the blood in the capillaries?
