You know, there is a muscle under the lungs. It is called diaphragm. It tightens and relaxes as you breathe. It goes through the bronchial tubes then up the windpipe, then out, then it comes back in. The windpipe is also called trachea. That's all I know.
I think you meant move air into the lungs. The muscle is the diaphragm.
inhale:- the air pressure in the lungs decreases and air moves in. exhale:-air pressure in the lungs increases and air moves out.
When your lungs move to bring in air and remove gases you are breathing.
the expansion and relaxation of your diaphram.
it is the muscle that makes your lungs move so you can get air.
your diafram
The diaphragm and intercostal muscles contract and relax to create changes in lung volume, allowing air to move in and out of the lungs through the trachea. This process is known as breathing or respiration.
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!
note when we yarn our lungs contract this is proven because our chest move inward as air is release.
The muscle is known as the diaphragm.
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.
The diaphragm is a strong wall of muscle on the bottom of the chest cavity. As this wall of muscle expands downward, a vacuum is created which pulls air into the lungs. As the diaphragm returns to it's original position, air is pushed out of the lungs.
