If the diaphragm below your thoracic cavity isn't moving,
then no air is moving either into or out of your lungs, and
your immediate future is looking dim. You really need to do
something about it.

How does magnetism help you hear recorded music?
In simple terms - the music is converted (from an analogue or digital source) into electricity. The electricity passes down the headphone's wires to the speakers. A magnet in the speakers reacts to the strength of the electrical signal to move a small diaphragm. The movement of the diaphragm sets up vibrations in the air between the speaker and your ears, which is then detected by your eardrum. Your brain interprets the air-movement as sound.
What is diaphragm made of?
your diaphragm is a muscle that helpsyou breathe
What happens during exhalation the diaphragm?
When breathing in, or inhaling, the diaphragm contracts, or tightens. When exhaling, or breathing out, the diaphragm expands, or loosens.
When you are sitting still are you moving?
At a very detailed level, yes. For example, your diaphragm is moving up and down to make you breathe. This makes your rib cage move up and down - movement which can be seen.
How do inhalation and exhalation impact diaphragm movement?
Diaphragm movement impacts inhalation and exhalation. It moves upward on exhalation.
Do you have to think of a movement before it will happen?
With some muscles, called voluntary muscles, you must think of the movement for it to happen. With involuntary muscles, however (like the heart and diaphragm), your brain does the moving automatically without you having to think about it ahead of time.
What is the movement of the chest cavity and the diaphragm?
inhale
What muscle contracts to cause a hiccup?
A hiccup is the movement of the diaphragm. The diaphragm is in the thoracic cavity just under the lungs. This organ helps to squeeze the lungs when you exhale in order to get all the air out of the lungs. Holding your breath causes the diaphragm to move downward and stop this movement.

Hiccup occurs because of an uncontrollable movement of?
the diaphragm
What happen to diaphragm when you relax?
It becomes domed.
What controls lung movement?
The diaphragm controls lung movement. The rib cage also contributes to this.
How lungs get oxygen?
From the air drawn into the lungs by movement of the diaphragm
What is the Involuntary muscle of lungs?
The diaphragm because breathing is an involuntary movement.
What is the movement of exhaling?
diaphragm relaxes ribs relax and carbon dioxide is forced out.
What moves air from the nose to the bronchi?
The vacuum created by down-ward movement of the diaphram.
How are diaphragm and intercostal muscles stimulated?
The diaphragm is stimulated the same way all other muscles are - nerve impulses that originate in the brain (or sometimes the spinal cord). The intercostal muscles expand during inhalation and contract during exhalation in response to the movement of the lungs by the diaphragm.
