Solution
Anatomic dead space' is the total volume of air in the conducting airways from the nose or mouth down to the terminal bronchioles.
This air does not take part in the gas exchange, because it remains in the conducting airways. In other words, not all the air in each breath is available for the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide. The volume is about 150 ml on the average in humans.
