You know, there is a muscle under the lungs. It is called diaphragm. It tightens and relaxes as you breathe. It goes through the bronchial tubes then up the windpipe, then out, then it comes back in. The windpipe is also called trachea. That's all I know.

Air is forced into the lungs by the contraction of the?

Actually, air isn't forced into the lungs my the contraction of any muscle, but by the relaxation of the Diaphragm, along with the Intercostalis muscles on the ribs and the smooth muscle on the lungs. When your diaphragm contracts, it pushes air out of your lungs. When it relaxes, air is drawn in to the lungs. The intercostalis muscles also help move the ribs when the lungs move as your breath. There is one set on the ribs and one set in between each rib.Hope this helps!
