Answer to Question 1

b. Bronchospasm d. Respiratory muscle fatigue

ANS: A
Hyperthermia increases the metabolic demands of the tissues and increases alveolar ventilation.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Screen pneumotachographs are inexpensive, disposable, operate at ambient temperature, and do not require a heating element. The Fleisch pneumotachograph is affected by turbulent airflow, making accurate peak flow readings difficult.
