o functional residual capacity
o inspiratory capacity
o total lung capacity

Explanation:

Vital capacity is the maximum volume of air that can be exhaled after a maximum inhalation. Total lung capacity is the volume of air in the lungs after a maximum inhalation and includes residual air that cannot be exhaled. Inspiratory capacity is the amount of air that can be inhaled after a normal exhalation. Functional residual capacity is the volume of air remaining in the lungs at the end - of a normal, quiet exhalation.
