What is the job of the diaphragm in the human body?
the diaphragm helps hold air in and out it is located right below your ribcage. when you sing, it pulses and allows your air to hold for a long time without a breath. The diaphragm is a muscle starting in your back and running to your front below your ribcage. It completely separates the area within your ribcage from the area below. However it does have sealed portals through which vessels and other structures pass. By expanding your diaphragm -- your abdomen will rise because the diaphragm is expanding downward into the abdominal area -- you can create a partial vacuum which helps to draw air into your lungs. Conversely, by relaxing your diaphragm you let air out of your lungs.
