What is the major breathing muscle in your body?
well, i guess it would be you diaphram since it pulls air into your lungs.
What is diaphragm and what does it do?
It's just below the lungs and is essential for breathing. The diaphram is what moves causing the lungs to expand and contract making air come in and out.
What carries air into your lungs?
when you contract your diaphram, or the lung muscle, your lungs become somewhat empty. this is called a partial vacuum. this is something that air, water, anything that can go in try to fill. the lungs, now a vacuum, pull stuff, supposed to be air!,into the lungs.
What muscle works with the lungs and ribs to get air in and waste gases out of the lungs?
The muscle is the "diaphragm" muscle. It is located beneath the lungs. When it moves down and away, it creates lower pressure around the lungs, and the air pressure outside the body flows into the lungs. When it moves up and in, it compresses the lungs, increasing the pressure to force the air back out.
What does your diaphragm do when you enhale?
When somebody inhales, the diaphram form a dome shape and when the exhales, the diaphram flattenes
What force cause air to move in an out of the lungs?
inhale:- the air pressure in the lungs decreases and air moves in. exhale:-air pressure in the lungs increases and air moves out.
What causes air to move in and out of your lungs?
the expansion and relaxation of your diaphram.
When you inhale the diaphram does what?
it contracts when you exhale because it is pushing the air out of your lungs.
Air is forced into the lungs by the contraction of the?
Actually, air isn't forced into the lungs my the contraction of any muscle, but by the relaxation of the Diaphragm, along with the Intercostalis muscles on the ribs and the smooth muscle on the lungs. When your diaphragm contracts, it pushes air out of your lungs. When it relaxes, air is drawn in to the lungs. The intercostalis muscles also help move the ribs when the lungs move as your breath. There is one set on the ribs and one set in between each rib.Hope this helps!
What does a diaphram do?

What is your diaphram?
The diaphragm is a dome-shaped muscle located beneath the lungs and separates the chest cavity from the abdominal cavity. It plays a vital role in the process of breathing by contracting and expanding to help draw air into the lungs and then expelling it.
