Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
See Figure 8-10, which shows the breathing circuit for performing a nitrogen washout test.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Body plethysmography measures mouth pressure and box pressure changes during tidal volume and panting. The microprocessor unit calculates the functional residual capacity from empirically derived pressure-volume relationships. It is Boyle's law that explains the relationship between gas volume and pressure when temperature is held constant.
