Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Pendelluft is defined as the movement of gases from one area of the lungs to another as a result of differences in the compliance and resistance of various lung regions; this is also called out-of-phase ventilation.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist is a mode of ventilation based on neural respiratory input. It relies on detection of the electrical activity of the diaphragm to control ventilator function through a special nasogastric tube that is fitted with an electrode array.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
