What else can I help you with?
How is air moved into and out of the lungs and what organs are involved?
The main muscle of respiration (moving air into and out of the lungs) is the diaphragm.
What does the diaphragm muscle do when air moves into the lungs?
The diaphragm moves down to make the lungs expand (inhalation)
Need muscular worker able to move up and down for moving air in and out of the lungs?
The muscular worker responsible for moving air in and out of the lungs is the diaphragm. This dome-shaped muscle contracts and flattens during inhalation, creating a vacuum that allows air to flow into the lungs. During exhalation, the diaphragm relaxes and moves upward, helping to expel air. This process is essential for respiration and maintaining proper oxygen levels in the body.
How the diaphragm helps the lungs?
Your diaphragm contracts and expands when you breath. When the diaphragm contracts, air rushes into the lungs. When the diaphragm relaxes, air is exhaled.
What is able to move up and down for moving air in and out of lungs?
The diaphragm and intercostal muscles contract and relax to create changes in lung volume, allowing air to move in and out of the lungs through the trachea. This process is known as breathing or respiration.
What muscles move the air in and out of the lungs?
I think you meant move air into the lungs. The muscle is the diaphragm.
What function does your diaphragm do in your respiratory?
The diaphragm is the primary muscle responsible for breathing. When it contracts, it moves downward, creating a vacuum in the chest cavity which draws air into the lungs. When it relaxes, the diaphragm moves back up, pushing air out of the lungs.
Moving muscles in order to make air flow into and out of the lungs?
The term for moving muscles in order to make air flow into and out of the lungs is breathing. The main muscle that moves is the diaphragm, which sits just below the lungs and causes air to flow in and out as it contracts and expands.
What is able to move up and down from moving air in and out of lungs?
the diaphragm is a muscle located below the lungs. When the muscle tissue of the diaphragm contracts, it moves down, creating a vacuum inside the lungs, and pulling air into them. To breathe out, the diaphragm simply relaxes, springs back up, and the air is expelled. Not all of the air ever comes out of the lungs during an exhale.
Is the lungs a muscle?
Lungs are not muscles. They are made up of connective, epithelial, and nervous tissues. The diaphragm is the muscle that contracts and relaxes to expand and relax the chest cavity. Your lungs just fill with air -- which is why they appear to be moving (much like a when a balloon fills with air).
What muscle is responsible for helping you breathe?
The diaphragm muscle is responsible for helping you breathe by contracting and expanding to create space for the lungs to fill with air.
What is the muscle that moves air in and out?
The diaphragm is the primary muscle responsible for moving air in and out of the lungs. When it contracts, it flattens, increasing the volume of the thoracic cavity and causing inhalation. When it relaxes, it returns to a dome shape, decreasing the volume of the thoracic cavity and causing exhalation.
