● Measure chest movements so that physiological effects
of various stimuli can be observed.
● Measure changes in the thoracic and abdominal

Lung Capacities
● Inspiratory Capacity (IC)
Total of Tidal Volume and Inspiratory Reserve Volume (VT + IRV)
● Functional Residual Capacity (FRC)
Expiratory reserve volume plus the residual volume (ERV + RV)
● Vital Capacity ( VC)
total utilizable volume of the lungs which is under voluntary control
● Total Lung Capacity (TLC)
total volume of the lungs, and it is the sum of residual volume and
vital capacity.

Breath held for 1 minute and 10 seconds | Breathing movement after breaking point was deep inhalation|
Amplitude of the last deep exhalation before breath holding was approximately equal to the amplitude of
the first inhalation after breath holding.
Effect of Breath holding : Hyperventilation
Breath held for 2 minutes and 20 seconds | breathing movement after reaching the breaking point was a
brief exhalation followed by an immediate inspiration

Sources of input for breathing rhythm control
Chemoreceptors
❖ Brain stem (central)
➢ detect CO2 and H+ accumulation
in brain tissues
❖ Carotid bodies and Aortic bodies
(peripheral)
➢ detect decreases in O2 and increases
in CO2 in arteries
Mechanoreceptors
❖ Pulmonary stretch receptors
➢ Detect stretching/inflation of
the lungs

Exercise
● Cortical influence
- Motor cortex stimulates medulla Neurogenic factors
● Peripheral influence
○ Chemoreceptors Stimulate medulla
- Co2, o2 levels
○ Mechanoreceptors Increased respiration rate
- Send sensory input from the
tendons, muscles, and joints
Hering Breuer reflex
- Prevent overinflation of Pulmonary stretch receptors
the lungs
- Send impulse to medullary
- Pulmonary stretch
receptors located in the center, inhibiting inspiratory
tracheobronchial tree neurons
and visceral pleura - Cuts inspiration short to prevent
over inflation of the lungs
