Jordan was very frightened meeting a Space Alien and began to
hyperventilate. The Alien could detect that Jordan’s respiration
rate was 25 cycles per minute and it could sense that the human’s
tidal volume was 300 mls (cubic centimeters).
If Jordan’s cardiac output of 5 liters/min did not change during
this encounter, what would the alveolar
minute perfusion be and how would this change lung dynamics?
