Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Uneven ventilation is likely to occur with high inspiratory flow.If,for example,the right bronchus is partially obstructed,most of the gas flow would go to the left lung because gas flow follows the path of least resistance.Consequently,a larger volume enters the left lung,creating higher airway pressures in the left lung compared with the right.
