HCA 201B Exam 2026 Question and
Answer | Final Review Pack | Grade A+
• What is a pulmonary function test. CORRECT ANSWER: measures
amount of air moving into and out of the lungs
• The process of respiration. CORRECT ANSWER: The respiratory
system brings oxygen into the lungs and removes carbon dioxide
• Average heart rate of an adult is. CORRECT ANSWER: 60 to 100
beats per minute
• Respiration involves. CORRECT ANSWER: inhalation (inspiration)
and exhalation (expiration).
• Breathing up right and forward is the. CORRECT ANSWER:
orthopneic position
• Tachypnea is. CORRECT ANSWER: rapid breathing Respirations are
more than 24 per minute
• Bradypnea is slow breathing. CORRECT ANSWER: Respirations are
fewer than 12 per minute
• Apnea is lack of or absence of breathing. CORRECT ANSWER: Sleep
apnea and periodic apnea of newborns are other types of apnea
• Kussmaul respirations. CORRECT ANSWER: Deep and rapid
respirations characteristic of diabetic acidosis

• Nasal cannula. CORRECT ANSWER: you can eat while wearing it
• Partial rebreather mask. CORRECT ANSWER: block the intake of the

breathing about 40% to 60% concentration of oxygen.
• Nonrebreather mask. CORRECT ANSWER: it is designed to prevent
mixing of atmospheric air or the air exhaled by the patient with the
oxygen. This type of mask allows up to 90% concentration of oxygen to
be delivered
• Venturi mask. CORRECT ANSWER: This type of mask increases the
supply of total oxygen for breathing, but the concentration of oxygen
supplied is only about 24% to 28%
• Thrombus. CORRECT ANSWER: Is a blood clot
• The entire system from mouth to anus is how long. CORRECT
ANSWER: 30 feet (9 meters) long
