    Vital Capacity (VC) and Tidal Volume (TV)

    • 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.

    VC/V and VC/TV

    • 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.
