The movement of air into and out of the lungs.

Moving air into and out of the lungs is called ventilation, or breathing. Breathing in is inhalation; breathing out is exhalation.

Distinguish ventilation, which moves air into and out of the lungs, from gas exchange between the alveoli and blood.

For minute ventilation, include units. If tidal volume is in ml, divide the final answer by 1000 to convert ml/min to L/min.
