Gas exchange in humans — practice question

Researchers examined how height was related to lung vital capacity in humans. Vital capacity is the largest volume of air that can be forced out of the lungs after a person has taken the deepest breath possible. Table 3.1 gives the findings from the study.
(a(i))[4]

Use the data in Table 3.1 to draw a line graph on the grid.

(a(ii))[1]

Describe the relationship your graph shows between height and vital capacity.

(a(iii))[2]

Use your graph to estimate the vital capacity of a person who is $175$ cm tall. Show on your graph how you reached your estimate.

(b)[1]

State the name of the reagent used to test for protein.
