KROK 1 2015 – Question 97 · KROK (Medicine) · Physiology
When studying the signs of pulmonary ventilation, reduction of forced expiratory volume has been detected. What is the likely cause of this phenomenon?
- A. Increase of pulmonary residual volume
- B. Increase of inspiratory reserve volume
- C. Increase of respiratory volume
- D. Obstructive pulmonary disease
- E. Increase of functional residual lung capacity
Hint
Forced expiratory volume reflects how quickly air can be blown out; ask what could slow that flow, and which listed changes are consequences rather than causes.
The answer, the explanation and a note on every option are available once you log in. The account is free: topic tests, a mock exam, mistake review and statistics.
