What is ventilation? inspiration (acquiring oxygen) and expiring (removing co2) Describe the different measures of ventilation. - tidal volume (tv)--volume of air going in and out at rest - vital capacity (vc)--maximal amount of air that can deliberately be moved in or out of lungs with forced inhalation and exhalation - forced vital capacity (fvc)--maximal amount of air that is exhaled from lungs during forced exhalation - forced expiratory volume in 1 second (fev1)--maximal amount of...
