a. bronchial obstruction
(bcs of decreased tactile fremiius and decr resonance)

atelectasis with bronchial obstruction:
the volume of ateletatic lung is decr.,
the dense mass is pulled toward the chest wall by neg. intrapleural pressure, so trachea shifts to the affected side..
The collapsed lung is dull bcs its density is incr.
The bronchial plug prevent air vibration - tactile fremius decr

if it would be not deviation of trachea, what would it be?

  #3

A?

  #4

Yup its Lobar Atelectasis or partial lung collapse Choice A

And if there was no shift in the tracheal position then it wud signify COPD
