Q. No.The given figure shows the diagrammatic view of human respiratory system (sectional view of the left lung is also shown). Regarding the parts labelled as P, Q, R and S, which of the following statements are true?
I:
P is an incomplete cartilaginous ring seen only in trachea and principal bronchus.
II:
Q is the point where the trachea divides into a right and left primary bronchus and corresponds to the level of 5th thoracic vertebra.
III:
R shows the double-layered pleura where the outer pleural membrane is in close contact with the thoracic lining.
IV:
S is pleural cavity with minimal amount of pleural fluid which reduces friction on the lung surface.

2. Only I, III and IV
3. Only II, III and IV
4. I, II, III and IV

It is necessary that lungs must be present in anatomically air-tight chamber because:
1. we cannot directly alter the pulmonary volume
2. our lungs are not made of any elastic tissue
3. the pleural cavity always has a positive pressure with respect to pulmonary pressure
4. the partial pressure of oxygen in atmosphere is less than that in the alveoli
