Vital Capacity (VC) and Tidal Volume (TV) are important measures of respiratory capacity.
VC is the maximum amount of air that can be exhaled after a maximum inhalation.
TV is the amount of air inhaled or exhaled during normal breathing.
The table highlights the comparison of VC and TV between humans and animals.
The table is incomplete, and specific values are missing.
It can be inferred that the table aims to compare the differences in respiratory capacity between humans and other animals.

The notes also discuss VC/V and VC/TV.
These terms likely refer to ratios or calculations involving VC, TV, and possibly volume (V).
The exact meanings and significance of these terms are unclear without further context.
