Diffusion of gases occurs in the alveolar region only and not in the other parts of respiratory system. Why? |
| Answer» for efficient exchange of geses respiratory surface must have certain characteristics such as (i) it must be thin . Moist and permeable to respiratory gases (ii) it must be very large (iii) it must be highly vascular. Only alveolar region has these characteristics . Thus diffusion of gases occurs in this region only. | |

If alveolar ventilation is `4200 mL//min`, respiratory frequency is `12` breaths per minute, and tidal volume is `500` mL, what is the anatomical-dead-space ventialtion ?A. `1800 "mL"//"min"`B. `6000 "mL"//"min"`C. `350 "mL"//"min"`D. `1200 "mL"//"min"` |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - A Total minute ventilations is comprised of dead space plus alveolar ventilation. Minute ventilation is respiratory frequnecy (`12` breaths per minue) multipled by tidal pressure `(500 "mL"//"breath") = 6000 "mL"//"min")`. Subtract alveolar ventilation `(4200 "mL"//"min")` from that i.e., `6000-4200 = 1800 "mL"//"min"`. |
|
| 591. |
What is dead space air ? |
|
Answer» During normal breathing about 500 ml of air is inspired (tidal volume ) by an average adult human being. Only about 350 ml of air enters the lungs alveoli for the exchange of gases and remaining 150 ml fills the respiratory passage . The latter is often called dead air space. |
