The sheet of internal skeletal muscle that separates the thoracic cavity from the abdominal cavity is called the diaphragm. It plays a crucial role in respiration by contracting and flattening during inhalation, which increases the volume of the thoracic cavity and allows air to flow into the lungs. The diaphragm also helps maintain intra-abdominal pressure and aids in functions such as digestion and elimination. Additionally, it acts as a barrier, preventing the contents of the abdominal cavity from interfering with the thoracic organs.
