What is the value of expiratory reserve volume (ERV) ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Definition of Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV):** - Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV) is defined as the volume of air that can be forcibly exhaled after a normal expiration. 2. **Understanding Normal Expiration:** - The normal expiration is referred to as tidal volume, which is the amount of air inhaled or exhaled during normal breathing. ...
