Listed below are four respiratory capacities (i–iv) and four jumbled respiratory volumes of a normal human adult:
Respiratory Respiratory      capacities volumes
(i) Residual volume      2500mL
(ii) Vital capacity      3500mL
(iii) Inspiratory reserve      1200mL volume
(iv) Inspiratory capacity      4500mL
Which one of the following is the correct matching of two capacities and volumes?

1. (ii) 2500mL, (iii) 4500mL
2. (iii) 1200mL, (iv) 2500mL
3. (iv) 3500 mL, (i) 1200mL
4. (i) 4500 mL, (ii) 3500mL

Correct Option: C

The correct matching of respiratory capacities with their respiratory volumes are:
