Vedclass · Answer

(D) Residual volume $(RV)$ is the volume of air remaining in the lungs even after a forcible expiration. Its value is approximately $1100 \ mL$ to $1200 \ mL$. Tidal volume $(TV)$ is the volume of air inspired or expired during a normal respiration,which is approximately $500 \ mL$. Since $1100-1200 \ mL > 500 \ mL$,the residual volume is greater than the tidal volume.
