Minute ventilation can be calculated by multiplying the breathing rate by the inspiratory reserve volume.
a. true
b. false

The answer is B: false

Explanation:

The ventilation per minute or volume expired per minute is the gas output during the inspiration or expiration of a person's lungs per minute. It is used as a reference standard to calculate the amount of carbon dioxide in a patient. It is calculated by multiplying the tidal volume (volume of air that circulates between an inspiration or normal exhalation without effort) whose normal value is 7 ml / kg of weight, multiplied by the respiratory rate
