O2 Tidal Vital Breathing Rate Link Demands Volume

This flashcard links increased oxygen demand to an increase in tidal volume (the amount of air inhaled or exhaled in a normal breath) which uses more of the vital capacity (the maximum amount of air a person can expel from the lungs), leading to an increased breathing rate to meet the higher oxygen requirements.

Front Link between O2 demands, tidal volume, vital capacity and breathing rate 3.1.1(e)
Back As O2 demands inc, tidal vol inc (takes up more of vital capacity) so breathing rate inc to meet higher O2 demands
