- Its volume is 500 ml
- It represents the volume of air from respiratory bronchioles to alveolus that do not take part in exchange of gases due to inadequate blood supply
- It represents the volume of air from nostril to terminal bronchioles that do not take part in exchange of gases due to incompetent tissue
