The given figure shows the diagrammatic view of human respiratory system (sectional view of the left lung is also shown). Regarding the parts labelled as P, Q, R and S, which of the following statements are true?
 
I: P is an incomplete cartilaginous ring seen only in trachea and principal bronchus.
II: Q is the point where the trachea divides into a right and left primary bronchus and corresponds to the level of 5th thoracic vertebra.
III: R shows the double-layered pleura where the outer pleural membrane is in close contact with the thoracic lining.
IV: S is pleural cavity with minimal amount of pleural fluid which reduces friction on the lung surface.

The figure shows the events happening during the inhalation and exhalation phases of pulmonary ventilation. Read the two given statements carefully.
  
I: A shows the inhalation phase brought about by the contraction of diaphragm that increases the volume of thorax in antero-posterior axis and by the contraction of external intercostal muscle that increases the volume of thorax in dorso-ventral axis.
II: B shows the exhalation phase brought about by the relaxation of diaphragm that decreases the volume of thorax in antero-posterior axis and by the contraction of internal intercostal muscle that decreases the volume of thorax in dorso-ventral axis.
1. Only I is correct
2. Only II is correct
3. Both I and II are correct
4. Both I and II are incorrect

Study the oxygen-haemoglobin dissociation curve given in the figure and select the correct statements regarding it:

I: The p50 is the pressure at which haemoglobin is 50% saturated which corresponds to about 27 mmHg on the X-axis.
II: A right shift of the curve means haemoglobin holds less tightly onto oxygen and delivers more oxygen to the tissues at a given arterial oxygen pressure.
