Pneumothorax
The thorax which has the legs and wings attached to it.
During ventilation, the thorax expands as the diaphragm and intercostal muscles contract, increasing the volume of the thoracic cavity. This expansion decreases the pressure inside the thorax, causing air to rush into the lungs to equalize the pressure. Relaxation of these muscles allows the thorax to recoil back to its original position, pushing air out of the lungs.
Your lungs are placed in the thorax. Your thorax or chest expand and contract. So that your lungs get and gives air. This happens simultaneously. So the lungs work together.
the head is superior to the thorax. the thorax is inferior to the head.
The bony thorax protects the heart and liver. Wrong... the bone thorax protects the heart and LUNGS as it also allows the respiratory muscle to create a vacuum that will draw air into the lungs. while the Ribs withing in the bone thorax will protect not only the thoracic organs, but as well the spleen, most of the liver and to some extent the kidneys.
When you breathe in, the volume of the thorax increases. This is due to the contraction of the diaphragm and expansion of the rib cage, creating more space for the lungs to expand and fill with air.
The thorax. See the related link for more information.
Pressure within the thorax decreases and air is drawn into the lungs
The thorax of an ant is considered to be its powerhouse. The thorax is the portion of the body to which the ant's legs are attached. There are three sections to the thorax in ants.
The middle segment is the thorax. Insects typically have (3)-head, thorax, abdomen.
The thorax is the middle part of the bee. The honeybee shivers the muscles in the thorax and when the thorax is warm enough the bee can fly.
Yes, the organs of the upper respiratory tract, such as the nose, pharynx, and larynx, are located outside the thorax, which is the chest cavity. These organs are responsible for the initial passage of air into the respiratory system.
