Which body system pulls air into the body?
That would be the 'diaphragm' (dye-uh-framm) which is a flat wide muscle lying below your lungs near the bottom of your front ribs. The diaphragm humps itself up, squeezing on the lungs, causing them to push air up and out through your mouth or nose. The diaphragm then humps down, pulling on the lungs, causing them to suck air in from the mouth or nose. When the diaphragm humps down, you can feel your belly getting bigger and sticking out farther.

This also makes it possible to build massive reflectors for research purposes, like the planned 38-metre-wide E-ELT.
