What is the approximate range of tidal volume in a healthy adult during normal respiration?
2500 mL to 3000 mL
1500 mL to 2000 mL
1000 mL to 1100 mL
500 mL to 800 mL
The amount of air that is inhaled or exhaled during typical breathing is known as tidal volume (TV). This capacity is around 500 mL, and an adult in good health may breathe in or out at a rate of 6000–8000 mL per minute (500 mL x 12–16 breaths per minute).
Option 4 is the correct answer.
