Hoe does the diaphragm help you breathe?
The diaphragm divides your torso into two parts. the upper part, the chest or thorax, houses the lungs. When the diaphragm pull down, it forces air into the lungs. Whenthe diaphragm pushes up, it forces air out of the lungs.l
How do the ribs and diaphragm move to aide inspiration?
Respiration is a process which involves taking in of oxygen through inhalation to supply to the tissues and release of carbon di oxide through exhalation from tissues to the atmosphere. During inhalation the rib cabe expands by moving out. The diaphragm moves down. These two process occur simultaneously to increase the air holding capacity of the lungs by expanding the alveolar cells of lungs.
Does the diaphragm move up on inhalation?
No, it pulls down to draw air into the lungs.
The diaphragm moves air into and out of the of a mammal?
Descends. When you inspire, the diaphragm descends, the thoracic volume inreases, the intra-thoracic pressure drops. The difference in the environmental pressure and the intra-thoracic pressure causes air to flow into the lungs.
What happens to the diaphragm when a person inhales?
The diafragm moves downward and the intercostal muscles contract pushing the chest outward and upward causing negative pressure in the lung structure - air will allways move from a high pressure area to a low pressure area, hence, into the lungs.
What causes air to move into and out of a person lungs?
your diafram
The process that causes liquid rock to move is called?
Convection causes liquid rock to move.
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.

Which organs muscles move food back into the pharynx?
The tongue pushes food to the back of the mouth.
Sound energy converted to electrical one in telephone wires?
in the most basic terms it works the same as a micro phone and speaker. In both a microphone and a speaker there's a diaphragm with a magnet inside a coil. As You speak into the mirophone the sound waves move the diaphragm back and forth causing the magnet to move back and forth, this induces current in the coil and the rest of the circuit. A speaker works the same but in reverse the current causes the magnet to move causing the diaphragm to move creating sound. So basically the signal of one mircophone is connected to the other persons ear piece. Hope that helps
What is a process that causes liquid rock to move?
convection :)
Function of ribs and diaphragm in the breathing process?
Ribs are for protection i think and diaphragm is the muscle controlling inhaling and exhaling. Also: the rib muscles can help the breathing process, which is useful when the diaphragm is weak, constricted, or to get an extra-big breath. Breathing from the diaphragm makes the belly move in and out as the lungs extend downwards. Breathing from the rib muscles makes the chest expand and rise.
What are you doing when your diaphragm moves up and your ribs move down and in?
Your diaphragm lowers and your ribs expand outwards
What muscles move the air in and out of the lungs?
I think you meant move air into the lungs. The muscle is the diaphragm.
When you breathe in does the diaphragm do?
When you breathe in, your diaphragm contracts. This makes the diaphragm move lower and increases the area in your lungs.
What does the human diaphragm do?
It contracts and relaxes to help pull air into the lungs and push it back out. The diaphragm contracts and moves lower which expands the ribs and allows air to move into the lungs. When it relaxes, the ribs contract and push air back out of the lungs.
What is the process that causes food to move along the digestive system?
"peristalsis"
