TITLE ! Investigation to determine whether or not relationships exist between gender or height with lung capacity of Year 9 students ! ! ! INTRODUCTION The capacity of our lungs is the volume of air our lungs can hold. Our lungs have a greater capacity than we use when we take a normal breath. Scientists use various terms to describe the different components of lung capacity. Tidal Volume is the amount of air breathed out in a single normal breath (inhalation and exhalation). The

Determining lung capacity Experiment: This is the experiment of determining lung capacity. All the students in the group measured three types of different parameters: vital capacity‚ expiratory reserve and tidal volume. “Lung volumeizing refer to physical differences in lung volume‚ while lung capacities represent different combinations of lung volumes‚ usually in relation to inhalation and exhalation.The average pair of human lungs can hold about 6 liters of air‚ but only a small amount of

LUNG CAPACITY Lung capacities are combinations of specific lung volumes. The lung capacities are measurements of two or more volumes. The total lung capacity (TLC) is a measurement of the total amount of air that the lung can hold; normally it is 6 litters for adult male and 4.2 litters for an adult female. The vital capacity (VC) measures the maximum amount of air that can be inhaled or exhaled during a respiratory cycle. The Residual Volume (RV) is the amount of gas remaining the lungs after a

Lung Capacity I. Introduction. The chest contains two lungs‚ one lung on the right side of the chest‚ the other on the left side of the chest. Each lung is made up of sections called lobes. The lungs are soft and protected by the ribcage. The purpose of the lungs is to bring oxygen into the body and to remove carbon dioxide. Oxygen is a gas that provides us with energy‚ while carbon dioxide is a waste product or “exhaust” of the body. | To deliver oxygen to the body‚ air is breathed in through

downward and this lead to increases the space in your chest cavity which causes your lungs to expand. The intercostal muscles that are found between your ribs helps with enlarge the chest cavity as they contract which pulls your rib cage both upward and outward as you inhale. The expandation of your lungs causes the air to be breathed in through your nose or mouth. The air goes down your windpipe and into lungs. Through your bronchial tubes it helps the air to reach and enter the alveoli or air

take our journey through the wonderful body of Lillian Jones. We have been scheduled to tour the lower lobe of her right lung. She has been feeling very ill and her doctor has informed her there is a bacterium invading her lung! We will be starting off in the right femoral vein and traveling up the body through the right pulmonary artery into the lower lobe of her right lung. Alright folks lets get started with our tour by getting a better understanding of our starting point! We are located

THE LUNGS The left and right lungs (Figure 23-7a‚ b) are situated in the left and right pleural cavities. Each lung is a blunt cone‚ with the tip‚ or apex‚ pointing superiorly. The apex on each side extends into the base of the neck superior to the first rib. The broad concave inferior portion‚ or base‚ of each lung rests on the superior surface of the diaphragm. Lobes and Surfaces of the Lungs The lungs have distinct lobes separated by deep fissures (Figures 23-7a‚b). The right lung has

Measuring of Lung Capacity Introduction This lab report is over the functions of the lungs and a better understanding of how the respiratory function happens within your body. You will be measuring the amount of air you breathe in and out. This function is called tidal volume‚ which is about 500 cc of air. Second portion of the testing procedure will be determining the amount of vital capacity or maximum amount your lungs can expel. You will be working in pairs with a lab partner and take turns recording

Voyage to the Lungs Trevor Frederick HS 130 Unit #4 – Assignment Kaplan University February 26‚ 2013 Welcome aboard! So glad you are all able to witness this extraordinary endeavor into the amazing human body. What you are about to witness is a feat seldom seen by the average individual. Frantic reports coming in are alarming; a foreign bacterium has invaded the right lung of our subject and is currently causing some severe damage. Shrunken to a mere eight microns in length‚ our state-of-the-art
