Answer: Tidal volume, air that can be inhaled volume, and air that can be exhaled volume are added together to make it. Whole lung capacity, on the other hand, refers to the total volume of air entering the lungs and respiratory tract following a maximal inspiration. Due to the higher oxygen concentration in the lungs’ capillaries, as blood flows through them, haemoglobin absorbs oxygen. It may then deliver this oxygen to the cells in the body in the tissues, where there is a lower oxygen pressure, to help the cells function. The residual waste, carbon dioxide, may also be taken up by the RBCs (red blood cells); some of it is transported by the haemoglobin (once at a separate site from that where it transports the oxygen), and the remainder is absorbed in the plasma.
