Statement I: | The outer pleural membrane is in close contact with the thoracic lining. |
Statement II: | The inner pleural membrane is in contact with the lung surface. |
Statement III: | The part starting with the external nostrils up to the terminal bronchioles constitutes the respiratory or exchange part of the respiratory system. |
Statement IV: | The alveoli and their ducts form the conducting part of the respiratory system. |

Assertion (A): | It is essential for breathing that the anatomical setup of lungs in thorax is such that any change in the volume of the thoracic cavity will be reflected in the lung (pulmonary) cavity. |
Reason (R): | We cannot directly alter the pulmonary volume. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
Assertion (A): | An increase in pulmonary volume will cause inspiration. |
Reason (R): | An increase in pulmonary volume increases the intra-pulmonary pressure to more than the atmospheric pressure. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
Statement I: | Expiratory Capacity is the total volume of air a person can expire after a normal inspiration. |
Statement II: | Functional Residual Capacity is the volume of air that will remain in the lungs after a forceful maximal expiration. |
I: | at alveoli |
II: | between blood and tissues |
