What else can I help you with?
What is the respiratory function of the ribs?
it helps you muscles to contract and expand when you inhale and exhale.
When the diaphragm and other respiratory muscles contract the lungs will experience what?
Inspiration - the process of breathing in. The lungs expand and take in air.
What are three main breathing organs?
The three main breathing organs in humans are the lungs, diaphragm, and the respiratory system. The lungs are responsible for exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide with the bloodstream, the diaphragm helps to expand and contract the lungs, and the respiratory system includes the airways that transport air into and out of the lungs.
Does the human bladder consist of goblet cells?
Yes it does. Though it is not totally made of goblet cells, it is made of different tissues that allow it to expand and contract. The goblet cells in the inner lining produce mucus and are found wherever there is columnar epithelium in the body. This can be in the urinary system, the gastrointestinal tract, and respiratory system.
What are organs that expand to fill with are called?
Organs that expand to fill with air are typically referred to as "elastic organs" or "compliant organs." In the context of the respiratory system, the lungs are the primary example, as they can expand and contract to accommodate varying volumes of air during breathing. Other examples include certain types of bladders or sacs in various organisms that can stretch to hold gases or fluids.
How does the respiratory system work together with the circulatory system and muscular system?
The circulatory system carries the oxygen full/lacking blood to and from the lungs. The muscular system makes the lungs expand and contract so the air can flow in and out of the lungs and out the capillaries.
Does matter expand or contract when it is heated?

What matter expand and contract?

Does matter expand or contract when it's heated?

What do muscles need in order to expand and stretch?
They have to either expand or contract through movement. They can only expand and contract as far as their tissues will allow,
Will an inert gas expand and contract with temperature?
It will contract.
How does pleura and lymph between the two layers protect the respiratory system?
The pleura is a double-layered membrane that surrounds the lungs, providing support and protection. The lymph between the two layers helps to remove excess fluid and debris, ensuring that the lungs can expand and contract properly during breathing. This protective mechanism helps to maintain the integrity of the respiratory system and prevent infections or other complications.
