What else can I help you with?
Can too much muscle relaxants stop the heart?
Definitely. Your heart is a muscle, and muscle relaxers do exactly what they sound like: relax your muscles.An overdose of muscle relaxers can also relax your diaphragm (the muscle beneath you lungs that contracts and expands, allowing you to breathe). Relaxation of the diaphragm would inhibit contraction and, therefore, breathing.
What is the first event in expiration?
The first event in expiration is the relaxation of the diaphragm muscle, which is the primary muscle responsible for breathing. As the diaphragm relaxes, it moves upward, decreasing the volume in the chest cavity and causing air to be expelled from the lungs.
Does diaphragm have any desiesses?
Yes, the diaphragm can be affected by disorders or conditions such as paralysis, diaphragmatic hernia, or diaphragm muscle weakness. These conditions can impact the ability of the diaphragm to properly contract and relax, leading to difficulties in breathing and other respiratory functions.
What is the human diaphragm made out of?
The diaphragm is not made out of bone, but the diaphragm is a muscle.
Muscle separating the chest and abdomen?
the diaphragm is the muscle separating the chest and the abdomen
Is the lungs a muscle?
Lungs are not muscles. They are made up of connective, epithelial, and nervous tissues. The diaphragm is the muscle that contracts and relaxes to expand and relax the chest cavity. Your lungs just fill with air -- which is why they appear to be moving (much like a when a balloon fills with air).
Is the diaphragm a muscle?

Is the diaphragm muscle?

What is the dome-shaped muscle that aids in breathing?
The muscle you are referring to is the diaphragm. It also separates the thoracic cavity from the abdominopelvic cavity.
What muscle is separating the thoracic cavity from the abdominal cavity?
The thoracic cavity is separated from the abdominal cavity by the diaphragm. This is a broad flat muscle. (muscular) diaphragmThe diaphragm is a muscle that separate the thoracic from the abdominal cavity. The pelvis is the lowest part of the abdominal cavity and it has no physical separation from it Diaphragm
Does exhalation occur when the diaphragm and rib cage muscles relax?
Yes, exhalation occurs when the diaphragm and muscles of the rib cage relax.
What is the Large muscle that helps mammals breathe?
The diaphragm is the primary muscle involved with breathing. When you want to take a breath in (inhale) you contract your diaphragm. This makes the thoracic cavity larger, decreasing the pressure in the thoracic cavity and generating a vacuum. Air is drawn into the lungs because of the creation of this intra-thoracic vacuum. When you relax your diaphragm the elasticity of your lungs will force air back out (exhalation).
