Which of these processes occurs when you inhale?
the diaphragm contracts and theocratic volume increase. for Plato d
What does the diaphragm do when you inhale?
When you inhale, the diaphragm contracts and moves down. This increase the chest cavity and the lung volume.
When does the lung relax?
The lung doesn't relax, it is controlled by the diaphragm When it relaxes the volume of the lungs decrease during expiration When it contracts the volume of the lungs increases during inhilation
When you inhale the diaphragm moves inferior?
the diaphram contracts and moves inferiorly and flattens, causing the thoracic cavity to increase in volume
What causes the air pressure in your lungs to decrease and make you inhale?
When you inhale, oxygen fills your lungs. Next the oxygen diffuses out of your lungs into your bloodstream. The diffusion of oxygen from the lungs causes less pressure in your lungs signaling your brain that you need to inhale.
What is a smooth muscle that contracts or relaxes to change the volume of the chest?
The Diaphragm.
What happens to the thoracic cavity when the diaphragm relaxes?
When the diaphragm relaxes, the volume of the thoracic cavity decreases. The resultant decrease in thoracic cavity leads to an increase in the pressure. This increase in pressure leads to the exhalation of air out of the lungs into the atmosphere.
What is the function of the diaphragm muscle?
Respiration. The diaphragm is a sheet of muscle separating the chest cavity from the abdominal cavity which, when relaxed, domes upwards; on breathing in the diaphragm contracts & flattens down, thus increasing the capacity of the chest, and causing air to be drawn into the lungs.When the diaphragm contracts that causes the volume of the lungs to increase. When the lung volume increases, the air pressure drops causing air to come in from outside (inhaling). When the diaphragm relaxes, the process is reversed. Lung volume decreases, air pressure builds, and air is forced out (exhaling).
Does temperature affect volume?
Yes. An increase in temperature will cause an increase in volume, while a decrease in temperature will cause a decrease in volume.
How does temperature affect the volume of substance?
An increase in temperature will cause an increase in volume, while a decrease in temperature will cause a decrease in volume.
How does temperature affect the volume of a substance?
An increase in temperature will cause an increase in volume, while a decrease in temperature will cause a decrease in volume.
When ice melts does its volume increase or decrease?
decrease
