What happens when the diaphragm stops working?
There's more than one thing called a diaphragm, so what happens when it fails depends on which one you're thinking of.
Define terms ipsilateral and contralateral as they apply to the functionality of the central nervous system?
ipsilateral- is on the same side of the body contralateral- is on the opposite side of the body what happens on one side will be different on the other
What is the definition of diaphragm?
A diaphragm is a thin sheet which separates two volumes or spaces (from Greek for barricade). They are manufactured for a variety of uses; in microphones and earpieces, pumps, and barriers to the passage of sperm for contraception. Many exist in living things, the eardrum being a small but important one. All the above mentioned things would be called a diaphragm. The diaphragm is one particular kind; it is a muscle that is located under the lungs that contracts to let air into the lungs. When the diaphragm "moves down" it causes you to inhale and when your diaphragm relaxes to form a dome shape muscle you exhale. If we didn't have a diaphragm then we wouldn't be able to give birth. The diaphragm also makes us have hiccups! When the regular rhythmic contraction gets disturbed we appear to end up with hiccups.
What happens when the diaphragm is pulled down (Do you inhale or exhale)?
How should I know? first of all you should know. but since you must be clueless (no offense :/) the correct answer would be yes, your diaphragm does go down when you inhale Ew, the above answer is absolutely obnoxious. Your diaphragm moves down when you inspire air. It does this to help the lungs open up so more air can get in. Your diaphragm is attached to the lung by pleura. Imagine wearing two latex gloves on one hand. If you pinch one of the gloves, say on the back of your hand, and pull the glove up, the second glove will follow. The first glove is what is attached to your diaphragm and the second glove is your lungs. Now if air goes into the second glove (or your lungs) it will fill the space you just made (especially because there is negative pressure in the glove, just like the lungs)
Why are hiccups not contagious?
a hiccup is just caused when the diaphragm goes out of sync. therefore it only affects one organism during that instance.

What is the working principle of vacuum gauge?
There are several types. Perhaps the commonest type involves a flexible diaphragm that is impervious to gases. One side of the diaphragm is in a closed chambre and exposed to air at standard pressure. The other side of the diaphragm is in a chambre that can be connected with hose or tubing to the vacuum whose pressure is to be measured. The degree of deflection of the diaphragm indicates the pressure differential to which it is exposed when it is connected to a vacuum. Please see the link for more information.

What do eardrums do when sound waves reach them?
The eardrums are like an omnidirectional microphone. The sound pressure vibrates the membrane (diaphragm) of the eardrum and the microphone only from one side.
