When describing events in the respiratory cycle, it is...

When describing events in the respiratory cycle, it is sometimes desirable to consider two or more lung volumes combined. Such combinations are called lung capacities.


Considering the information given above, choose the option which correctly shows the components of functional residual capacity (FRC).


A

tidal volume + residual volume


B

expiratory reserve volume + residual volume


C

tidal volume + expiratory reserve volume


D

residual volume + inspiratory reserve volume
