### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Definition of Inspiratory Capacity (IC)**: - Inspiratory Capacity is defined as the maximum volume of air that can be inhaled after a normal expiration. It represents the total amount of air that can be inhaled into the lungs after a normal breath. 2. **Components of Inspiratory Capacity**: - Inspiratory Capacity (IC) is the sum of two volumes: - **Tidal Volume (TV)**: This is the amount of air inhaled or exhaled during normal breathing. In a normal human adult, the tidal volume is approximately **500 mL**. ...
