(N/A) Respiratory Volumes:
Tidal Volume $(TV)$: It is the volume of air inspired or expired during a normal respiration. It is approximately $500 \,mL$,i.e.,a healthy man can inspire or expire approximately $6000$ to $8000 \,mL$ of air per minute.
Inspiratory Reserve Volume $(IRV)$: The additional volume of air a person can inspire by a forcible inspiration. This averages $2500 \,mL$ to $3000 \,mL$.
Expiratory Reserve Volume $(ERV)$: The additional volume of air a person can expire by a forcible expiration. This averages $1000 \,mL$ to $1100 \,mL$.
Residual Volume $(RV)$: The volume of air remaining in the lungs even after a forcible expiration. This averages $1100 \,mL$ to $1200 \,mL$.
Capacities:
By adding up a few respiratory volumes described above,one can derive various pulmonary capacities,which can be used in clinical diagnosis.
Inspiratory Capacity $(IC)$: It is the total volume of air a person can inspire after a normal expiration. This includes tidal volume and inspiratory reserve volume $(IC = TV + IRV)$,which is $3000$ to $3500 \,mL$.
Expiratory Capacity $(EC)$: It is the total volume of air a person can expire after a normal inspiration. This includes tidal volume and expiratory reserve volume $(EC = TV + ERV)$,which is $1500$ to $1600 \,mL$.
Functional Residual Capacity $(FRC)$: It is the volume of air that will remain in the lungs after a normal expiration. This includes $ERV + RV$ $(FRC = ERV + RV)$,which is $2100$ to $2300 \,mL$.
Vital Capacity $(VC)$: The maximum volume of air a person can breathe in after a forced expiration. This includes $ERV + TV + IRV$,or the maximum volume of air a person can breathe out after a forced inspiration.
Total Lung Capacity $(TLC)$: The total volume of air accommodated in the lungs at the end of a forced inspiration. This includes $RV + ERV + TV + IRV$ or $VC + RV$. $TLC$ is about $5100$ to $5800 \,mL$.
