  10. A patient is having difficulty breathing. A spirometric evaluation reveals a FVC that is 50% of predicted, a FEV1.0 that is 55% of predicted, and a normal FEV1.0/FVC ratio. These observations suggest that the patient has: • A. an obstructive impairment. • B. a restrictive impairment. • C. both an obstructive and a restrictive impairment. • D. a diffusive impairment. • E. both an obstructive and a diffusive impairment.

  11. FRC is increased in individuals with emphysema, because: • A. the decreased compliance of the chest wall keeps the lungs at a higher volume. • B. the increased compliance of the lungs allows the chest wall to move closer to its resting position. • C. the decrease in airway resistance limits the volume of air that can be exhaled during quiet breathing. • D. the patient breathes at a higher lung volume to overcome the diffusion limitation produced by the disease. • E. hypoxic stimulation of the peripheral chemoreceptors results in a reflex-mediated increase in FRC.

  13. Residual volume is the lung volume at which the: • A. tendency for the lung to recoil inward is exactly balanced by the tendency for the chest wall to recoil outward. • B. respiratory musculature can cause no further movement of the chest wall inward. • C. lungs contain their "absolute" volume. • D. only remaining air in the lung is that contained in the anatomic dead space. • E. chest wall is at its "resting position".

  14. The expiratory reserve volume (ERV) is defined as the: • A. volume of gas that can be exhaled after a maximal inspiration. • B. volume of gas that can be maximally exhaled from functional residual capacity. • C. volume of gas in the lungs after a maximal inspiration. • D. volume of gas in a single inspiration or expiration. • E. volume of hot air released during a single lecture.

  15. The blood emerging from a lung unit with an abnormally low ventilation/perfusion ratio would have a: • A. PO2 greater than 100 mmHg and a PCO2 lower than 40 mmHg. • B. PO2 equaling 100 mmHg and a PCO2 equaling 40 mmHg. • C. PO2 less than 100 mmHg and a PCO2 greater than 40 mmHg. • D PO2 less than 100 mmHg and a PCO2 less than 40 mmHg. • E. PO2 greater than 100 mmHg and a PCO2 greater than 40 mmHg.

  16. In an upright individual, blood flow to the base of the lungs exceeds that to the apex because: • A. basal blood vessels are intrinsically larger than apical vessels and thus have a reduced resistance to flow. • B. enhanced sympathetic nerve activity to the basal vessels causes them to preferentially vasodilate. • C. valves in the pulmonary artery preferentially direct blood to the basal portions of the lungs. • D. basal blood vessels are intrinsically more compliant than apical vessels. • E. the hydrostatic pressure gradient distends basal vessels more and thus lowers their resistance to flow.

  17. Type II epithelial cells of the lungs produce a chemical called surfactant. The presence of surfactant: • A. prevents airway resistance from increasing to exceedingly high values. • B. decreases the muscular effort required to ventilate the lungs. • C. is responsible for the infant respiratory distress syndrome. • D. is responsible for the fluid in prenatal lungs. • E. causes small alveoli to empty into large alveoli.

  20. At zero gravity, blood flow: • A. to the base of the lung should exceed that to the apex. • B. throughout the lung should be homogeneously distributed. • C. in the lung will not differ from that which occurs at normal gravity. • D to the ventral surface of the lung will exceed that to the dorsal surface. • E. to the lung would completely stop

  21.

Increase in heavy breathing

  22. During inspiration from functional residual capacity, alveoli at the base of the lung expand to a greater degree than alveoli at the apex, because: • A. alveoli at the base are located on a steeper portion of the compliance curve than those at the apex. • B. the forces of surface tension prevent adequate expansion of alveoli in the apex. • C. dynamic compression of the airways prevents alveoli in the apex from adequately expanding. • D. the accessory muscles of inspiration do not become activated until very high ventilatory volumes are reached.

  23. A patient arrives in the emergency room with a right-sided pneumothorax caused by a knife wound to the chest. You suture the wound, but a close observation of the patient suggests that the right lung is still collapsed. These observations indicate that: • A. alveolar pressure of the right lung has become negative. • B. transmural pressure of the right lung was positive. • C. pleural pressure between the right lung and chest wall was atmospheric. • D. that the patient stabbed himself.

  24. On a normal O2 dissociation curve and a curve that has been shifted to the right . The rightward shifted curve: • A. allows more O2 to be unloaded from the blood for a given fall in PO2. • B. allows less O2 to be unloaded from the blood for a given fall in PO2. • C. allows a greater degree of oxygen loading of the blood within the lungs. • D. reduces the amount of oxygen that can be maximally carried by the blood. • E. may have resulted from a boring lecture.

  26. At a given PCO2, CO2 content is greater when there is less O2 in the blood (Haldane effect), because: • A. less HCO3- is produced, which allows more CO2 to be carried in solution. • B. the CO2 solubility coefficient is increased. • C. plasma proteins can form more carbamino compounds when PO2 is reduced. • D. deoxygenated Hb is a better buffer of H+ ions.
