Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
When the gas flow through the Bennett valve decreases to between 1 and 3 L/min, the force of gravity is sufficient to swing the valve completely closed, thus terminating inspiration.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The Puritan Bennett AP-5 machines are electrically powered and patient-triggered only. The oth-er machines are pneumatically powered and can be time-triggered, as well as patient-triggered.
