To determine the inspiratory reserve volume in the lungs, you can measure the maximum amount of air a person can inhale after a normal inhalation. This can be done using a spirometer, a device that measures lung capacity and function. The inspiratory reserve volume is the additional air that can be inhaled beyond the normal tidal volume.
Inspiratory reverse volume is the volume of air that remains in the lungs after maximal inspiratory effort. This can happen in conditions where the lungs are hyperinflated, like in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It can lead to inefficient breathing and decreased exercise tolerance.
What happens to residual volume, tidal volume, inspiratory reserve volume and expiratory reserve volume just after exercise while breathing deeply and rapidly? Do they increase, decrease or stay the same?
Functional residual capacity (FRC) is the volume of air remaining in the lungs after a normal exhalation, while residual volume (RV) is the volume of air remaining in the lungs after a maximal exhalation. FRC includes both the expiratory reserve volume and the residual volume, while RV is the volume of air that cannot be exhaled from the lungs.
The diaphragm is the primary muscle responsible for the inspiratory phase of breathing in the thorax. It contracts and moves downward, increasing the volume of the thoracic cavity and allowing air to enter the lungs. This action helps in the intake of oxygen during inhalation.
In short no. When breathing normally the flow of air in and out is called the tidal volume and is usually about 500ml per breath (the fluction of lung volume is 2300ml to 2800ml in a breath). The most air you can possibly breath in is called the Inspiratory Reserve Capacity and can take the total lung volume up to about 5800ml (increasing the inspiration from tidal by 2000ml). The most air you can force our of you lungs is called the Expirational Reserve Volume and can bring the lung volume down as low as 1200ml. The 1200ml left is called the residual volume and is always in the lungs no matter what because if it left the lungs all the Alveoli (air sacs) would collapse and be unable to function again. Combinations of these different values give different important number that but these are not really relevent to the question. *all vallues are taken from statistical results and are not relevant to everyone.

The term for the total amount of exchangeable air in the lungs is called the total lung capacity. It includes the sum of all lung volumes, including tidal volume, inspiratory reserve volume, expiratory reserve volume, and residual volume. Total lung capacity provides insight into how much air the lungs can hold.
Tidal volume is the amount of air that moves in and out of the lungs during normal breathing. Vital capacity is the maximum amount of air a person can exhale after taking the deepest breath possible. It is the sum of tidal volume, inspiratory reserve volume, and expiratory reserve volume.
The volume not included in the vital capacity is the residual volume (RV). Residual volume is the amount of air that remains in the lungs after a maximal exhalation and cannot be voluntarily expelled. Vital capacity, which consists of tidal volume, inspiratory reserve volume, and expiratory reserve volume, measures the maximum amount of air a person can exhale after a deep breath, excluding the residual volume.
The greatest respiratory measurement is typically the total lung capacity (TLC), which represents the maximum amount of air the lungs can hold. TLC is composed of several volumes, including tidal volume, inspiratory reserve volume, expiratory reserve volume, and residual volume. This measurement is crucial for assessing lung health and function.
Vital capacity is the amount of air that can be exhaled after taking a deep inhalation. It represents the maximum volume of air that the lungs can hold and is an important measure of lung function. This measurement includes tidal volume, inspiratory reserve volume, and expiratory reserve volume. It is often used in clinical settings to assess respiratory health.

ERV does not include tidal volume which is the typical amount of air coming in and out of your lungs with each breath. (approx 500ml) ERV is the amount of air evacuated out of your lungs after tidal expiration. (approx 1200ml) Vital Capacity is the total amount of exchangeable air or the sum of TV, ERV, and IRV. IRV is inspiratory reserve volume or the amount of air you can inspire forcibly beyond the tidal volume (approx 2100- 3200ml).
The volume of air which you normally breathe in and out is called the tidal volume. This is normally about 500 cm3 when you are at rest. However if you breathe in as much as you can you can breathe in more than 500 cm3. The extra volume of air breathed in (inspiration) is called the inspiratory reserve volume.Similarly when you breathe out as much as you can, the extra volume of air breathed out (expiration) is called the expiratory reserve volume. These three volumes added together give you your vital capacity: the maximum volume of air you can breathe in or out. When you have breathed out as much as you can there is still some air left in your lungs ie you cannot empty your lungs completely. This volume is called the residual volume.The vital capacity plus the residual volume equals your total lung capacity.

The abbreviation FRV stands for functional reserve volume. Functional reserve volume is used to describe the volume of air in ones lungs at the end of the expiratory position.
The air left in your lungs after exhaling is called "Expiratory Reserve".
Inspiratory muscles such as the diaphragm and external intercostal muscles contract to increase the volume of the thorax. This action lowers the intrathoracic pressure, allowing air to rush into the lungs during inhalation.
