Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

A
Most older adults experience a decreased functional respiratory reserve capacity with a generalized decreased elasticity and tone of muscles, including the muscles necessary for respiration. Physical changes in the lungs include fewer functioning alveoli and a decreased number of cilia. Calcification of the chest wall and rib cage causes the lungs to remain hyperinflated on exhalation, thereby decreasing functional capacity.
