When the diaphragm expands, causes the lungs to become smaller forcing all the air in the lungs to be pushed out since there is more pressure. When the diaphragm contracts, it makes more room for the lungs to expand, forcing air in the lungs since there is more space.
Yes the liver lies below the diaphragm on the right side of the abdomen.
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.
Your diaphragm contracts and expands when you breath. When the diaphragm contracts, air rushes into the lungs. When the diaphragm relaxes, air is exhaled.
I think you meant move air into the lungs. The muscle is the diaphragm.
The process of breathing involves the contraction of the diaphragm, a dome-shaped muscle located below the lungs. When you inhale, the diaphragm contracts and moves downward, creating more space in the chest cavity for the lungs to expand and fill with air. When you exhale, the diaphragm relaxes and moves back up, pushing the air out of the lungs.

The diaphragm, a muscle below the lungs, contracts to pull air into the lungs. In order to forcefully exhale, both the abdominal muscles and the internal intercostal muscles can be contracted to compress the lungs.
They don't physically breathe in & out - like animals an people. They have no diaphragm to pull air into their lungs. The spiders lungs are simple 'book lungs' which simply exchange gasses.
When you breathe in, your diaphragm will contract, causing your lungs to expand and suck in air. When you breathe out, your diaphragm will relax, causing your lungs to shrink and force out air.
The diaphragm moves down to make the lungs expand (inhalation)
