There are several muscles that are responsible for breathing. They are the Diaphragm, the external intercostal muscle, and the internal intercostal muscle.

During excersise why does breathing rate increase so quickly?
Because your muscles need more oxygen, hence you hyperventilate.
Why does your breathing rate change during exercise?
When you exercise the breathing rate increases because the body needs more oxygen to support your muscles. First off the heart rate increases which in turn speeds up how fast the air gets to the muscles or area being exercised then the oxygen is quickly used up then it needs to remove the by-product carbon dioxide which needs to be expelled quickly to allow more oxygen in.
How does elastic recoil function in breathing?
Elastic recoil functions during expiration. As the diaphragm and external intercostal muscles relax, the elastic tissues of the lungs recoil and air will forced out of the lungs... i guess so
What controls lymph flow?
The milking action of skeletal muscles (contraction), and pressure changes in the thorax during breathing

heart and armsheart and breathing (during sleep)
Can you please tell me what skeletal muscles contracted during sleeping?
The diaphragm and intercostals for breathing
What is caused by a contraction of the muscles of respiration?
The various muscles of respiration aid in both inspiration and expiration, which require changes in the pressure within the thoracic cavity. The respiratory muscles work to achieve this by changing the dimensions of the thoracic cavity.The principal muscles are the diaphragm, the external intercostal and the interchondral part of the internal intercostal muscles. Both the external intercostal muscles and the intercondral elevate the ribs, thus increasing the width of the thoracic cavity, while the diaphragm contracts to increase the vertical dimensions of the thoracic cavity, and also aids in the elevation of the lower ribs.Accessory muscles are typically only used when the body needs to process energy quickly (e.g. during heavy exercise, during the stress response, or during an asthma attack). The accessory muscles of inspiration can also become engaged in everyday breathing when a breathing pattern disorder exists.
Why does it hurt when you breathe out and not in?
Depends on the cause of the pain, but if the pain is from overexertion from intense physical activity, may be due to the muscles involved in respiration. The intercostal muscles between the ribs, and diaphragmatic muscles, both expand and are placed under greater stress during inhalation. Upon exhalation, the release of air allows these muscles to relax without effort, being usually a passive part of the breathing cycle.

What muscle is involved in breathing during exercise?
the diaphragm play an important role in breathing. hope it helped....
