(Answer to Q. 1)  ANS: B
Gas movement between the lungs and tissues occurs by simple diffusion.

(Answer to Q. 2)  ANS: A
Pressure-volume curve is used for setting optimal PEEP.

(Answer to Q. 3)  ANS: D
Approximately 80 of the resistance to gas flow occurs in the nose, mouth, and large airways, where flow is mainly turbulent. Only about 20 of the total resistance to flow is attributable to airways smaller than 2 mm in diameter, where flow is mainly laminar.

(Answer to Q. 4)  ANS: A
Transrespiratory pressure (PTR) gradient causes gas to flow into and out of the alveoli during breathing.
