Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Because alveolar pressure is greater than pleural pressure (Ppl) during PPV, positive pressure is transmitted from the alveoli to the pleural space, causing pleural pressure to increase during in-spiration.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Because alveolar pressure is greater than pleural pressure (Ppl) during PPV, positive pressure is transmitted from the alveoli to the pleural space, causing pleural pressure to increase during in-spiration.
