The lung values that changed include the following: ERV < IRV < RV < FVC < FEV1%. Spirogram is used to measure pulmonary function test. It is a test that tests the efficiency of the lungs to exchange carbon dioxide and oxygen gases. The vital capacity of the lung is equal to TV +IRV + ERV and the total capacity is equal to the summation of TV, IRV, ERV and RV.
When the patient with emphysema was
selected lung values changed (from those of the normal patient) in the
spirogram are:
ERV, IRV, RV, FVC, FEV1, FEV1 %
<span>The reason behind the changes of these values are due to the loss or inability of electric recoil. A spirogram (graph
like structure obtained by the respiratory movements) is measured by
spirometer.</span>
The mudflows are very dangerous and they have a great destructive power. They appear after a heavy rainfall on places that are steep. The mudflows are very fast and sudden occurrences, so usually people are caught unprepared. A mudflow is a mixture of water and lot of ground/mud, and all sorts of debris, which also contributes to it to be more dangerous.
One of the challenges that scientists face when classifying a new fossil is that any tiny detail is all that separates one species from another. Further exploration is required to identify another set of characteristics that may help in deciding which organism belongs or create a new class.
