Question: Match Expiration, External respiration, Inspiration, Internal respiration, and Partial pressure with their descriptions.
Answer: Partial pressure → activity of a gas in a mixture; Internal respiration → exchange between systemic capillaries and cells; Inspiration → air enters lungs; Expiration → air leaves lungs; External respiration → exchange between alveoli and pulmonary capillaries. 57.
Question: Classify the asthma and spirometry statements as true or false.
Answer: Exercise/pollution/allergens trigger asthma = True; spirometry measures volume and speed of exhaled air = True; emphysema and chronic bronchitis cause asthma = False; spirometry is only taken at rest = False. 58.
