What does it mean to say that a data point has a residual of zero?
The point lies directly on the regression line.
Can the amount of residual air be measured by breathing out?
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.
What are the effects of exercise on the expiratory reserve volume?
In contrast to Inspiratory Reserve volume,Tidal volume and Expiratory reserve volume, residual volume does not change with exercise
What to put on chigger bites?
A square of duct tape will suffocate the chigger and help end the problem. A little bit of hydrocortisone cream and a Benadryl tablet will take care of the residual itching.
Why are the loading dye added to the samples before they are loaded into the wells?
The loading dye is added to the samples before they go into the wells, because it increases the density enough to make the samples sink to the bottom of the wells. A sample of DNA that contains residual ethanol when it is placed in the well may float.
What are factors to consider when employing risk management?
residual risk, increased cost and decreased productivity
Why is functional residual capacity measured and why is it important?
Funtional Residual Capacity amounts
What is the functional residual capacity FRC composed of?
Functional Residual Capacity (FRC) = Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV) + Residual Volume (RV)
What does total lung capacity equals?
Total lung volume equals Vital Capacity + Residual Volume.
What measurement in addition to vital capacity is needed before you can calculate your total lung capacity?
Residual volume
Which volume of air is not included in the vital capacity?
residual (reserve) volume
How does Functional Residual Capacity change during exercise?
rubish
Pulmonary Volume with its approximate value?
functional residual capacity 2300 Inspiratory capacity 3500 Vital capacity 4600 Total lung capacity 5800
What is orthokeratin?
Stratum corneum (outermost layer of epidermis) with an increased keratin layer without residual nuclei and has an uneven surface. (NORMAL) Parakeratin has an increased keratin layer with shrunken (pyknotic) residual nuclei and a more even surface (ABNORMAL)
What does appearance of a blue or pink color in thioglycolate tube mean?
To indicate a presence of free residual oxygen.
What air volumes cannot be measured using a simple spirometer?
Functional residual capacity (FRC)
Is Tidal Volume Plus Residual Volume equal to vital capacity?
No, vital capacity is the maximum volume a person can exhale after taking the deepest breath that they can
