Where liver located?

Protects the lungs and supports breathing?

How the diaphragm and the rib cage move?
These are the muscles that move the rib cage and they work together:Diaphragm (Prime mover of inhalation). If you need to breathe deeper you will use these:Scalenes (Elevate rib cage, assist in inhalation)Sternocleidomastoid (Elevate Rib Cage, assist in inhalation)Pectoralis minor (Elevate Rib Cage, assist in inhalation)External Intercostals (Elevate rib cage, assist in inhalation)Internal Intercostals (Depress, assist in exhalation)The diaphragm is under both voluntary control (holding your breath) and involuntary control (sleeping, reading)
When the rib muscles and diaphragm relax and the chest cavity becomes what?
When the diaphragm and muscles of the rib cage relax, the thoracic cavity becomes smaller. These changes occur during exhalation.
