Vedclass · Answer

(A) The Total Lung Capacity $(TLC)$ is defined as the total volume of air accommodated in the lungs at the end of a forced inspiration.This includes the Vital Capacity $(VC)$ and the Residual Volume $(RV)$.Mathematically, $TLC = VC + RV$ (or $IRV + TV + ERV + RV$).For an average healthy human adult, the total lung capacity is approximately $5800 \, ml$ to $6000 \, ml$ $(5.8 - 6.0 \, liters)$.Therefore, the correct option is $A$.

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$a.$ Tidal Volume	$i.$ $2500$ to $3000 \, mL$ of air
$b.$ Inspiratory Reserve Volume	$ii.$ $1000 \, mL$ of air
$c.$ Expiratory Reserve Volume	$iii.$ $500 \, mL$ of air
$d.$ Residual Volume	$iv.$ $3400$ to $4800 \, mL$ of air
$e.$ Vital Capacity	$v.$ $1200 \, mL$ of air

What is the total lung capacity of a healthy human adult (in $ ml$)?
