Detailed Solution

A sphygmomanometer is a device used to measure blood pressure, not air volumes in breathing movements. Air volumes in breathing movements are typically measured using a spirometer.

Residual Volume (RV) is the volume of air that remains in the lungs after maximal expiration, not after a normal expiration. It's the volume of air that cannot be expelled from the lungs even with maximum effort.
