The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to fill in the blanks in the statements provided. Let's break it down step by step: ### Step 1: Analyzing the First Statement The first statement mentions the volume of air that enters the lungs for gas exchange and the remaining air that fills the respiratory passages. - **Fill in the first blank (1)**: The volume of air that enters the alveoli for gas exchange is approximately **350 mL**. - **Fill in the second blank (2)**: The remaining air that fills the respiratory passages is termed **dead space volume** (or simply **dead air**). ### Step 2: Analyzing the Second Statement The second statement refers to the amount of air that can be inhaled and exhaled with maximum effort. - **Fill in the third blank (3)**: This amount is termed **vital capacity**. - **Fill in the fourth blank (4)**: The vital capacity for a normal adult person is about **4000 mL**. ### Step 3: Analyzing the Third Statement The third statement discusses the average amount of air inspired or expired during normal quiet breathing. - **Fill in the fifth blank (5)**: The average volume of air inspired or expired in each breath is approximately **500 mL**. - **Fill in the sixth blank (6)**: This volume is termed **tidal volume**. ### Final Answers Now, let's summarize the filled blanks: 1. **(1)** 350 mL 2. **(2)** Dead space volume 3. **(3)** Vital capacity 4. **(4)** 4000 mL 5. **(5)** 500 mL 6. **(6)** Tidal volume ### Complete Statement - (i) Actually, only about **350 mL** of air enters the lungs alveoli for the exchange of gases. The remaining fills the respiratory passage and is termed **dead space volume**. - (ii) The amount of air which one can inhale with maximum effort and also exhale with maximum effort is termed as **vital capacity**. It is about **4000 mL** in a normal adult person. - (iii) During normal quiet breathing, on average, approximately **500 mL** of air is inspired or expired by an adult human male in each breath. It is termed as **tidal volume**.
