Name the muscles that raise and lower the ribs in a fetal pig?
intercostals..internal and external
What are two muscles found in the thoracic wall of the cat and the human?
The muscles of the thoracic wall consist of the intercostals and the diagram. The intercostals have several layers: external intercostal, internal intercostal and innermost intercostals. These are the same in cats and humans.
The intercostals are located?
The intercostal muscles are located between the ribs. They play important roles in breathing. There are two sets of intercostal muscles, external and internal. The external intercostals contract during normal inspiration, causing the rib cage to expand out and up and thus increase the volume of the chest cavity. The internal intercostals are used during forced expiration only. When they contract, the rib cage pulled down and together, shrinking the volume of the chest cavity.
What muscel contract when you forcefully exhale?
The internal and external oblique abdominis, transverse abdominis, and the rectus abdominis on the anterior (front) part of the body. The posterior (or back) ones include the quadratus lumborum iliacus and psoas major and minor. Forced expiration muscles are used in coughing but also are important in singing.
The immediate effects of exercise on the Diaphragm and intercostals?
The diaphragm and the intercostals are muscles that help breathing. When you excerise they work harder because it is harder to breathe.
What moves the ribcage?
external and internal intercostals
Are the external and internal intercostals muscles?
Yes.
What muscles aid in breathing?
external/ internal intercostals
What muscles are used for negative pressure breathing?
external intercostals and the diaphragm
What small muscles elevate the ribs during breathing?
External intercostal muscles are the ones between the ribs that help elevate them during inspiration.
What are the actions from the constructions in respiratory muscles?
Muscles of inspiration include: diaphragm, scalenes, pectoralis minor, and external intercostals. The muscles of expiration include: abdominals and internal intercostals.
Which muscle performs protraction of the ribs?
I believe it is the External Intercostals that are responsible for protraction of the ribs.
Name the muscles that raise and lower the ribs in a fetal pig?
intercostals..internal and external
What muscles depress the rib cage?
The internal intercostal depresses the ribcage while the external intercostals elevate the ribcage
Which muscles are used when inspiration is forced?
the sternoclediomastoid, scalenes and external intercostals all work to increase throracic volume. hope that helps
What is the most important breathing muscle?
The diaphragm is the prime mover of inspiration. It flattens on contraction, increasing the vertical dimensions of the thorax, which draws air into the lungs. The external intercostals also contribute to inspiration. The internal intercostals and rectus abdominis are expiratory muscles.

The muscles of the thoracic wall consist of the intercostals and the diagram. The intercostals have several layers: external intercostal, internal intercostal and innermost intercostals. These are the same in cats and humans.
