Lab pulmonary function tests-volumes and capacities

Reference no: EM13522433

This is a question from the Lab Pulmonary Function Tests: Volumes and Capacities

Vital capacity and expiratory reserve volume tend to decrease with age, but functional resudual capacity normally remain constant )ages 20-65). Use volume/capacity relationships to explain how ERV decrease while FRC is constant, and give a reason why VC and ERV decrease with age.
