The diaphragm moves down when you breathe in, so your lungs will expand to take in as much oxygen as possible.
The diaphragm moves down to make the lungs expand (inhalation)
The diaphragm.
I believe that answer is the diaphragm. As the diaphragm moves up and down, it expands the lungs, and when the diaphragm goes up, the lungs release the air out again.
It is the thoracic diaphragm.
The diaphragm moves down to make the lungs expand (inhalation)
When you breath, your diaphragm moves up and down , causing air to flow into and out of the lungs .
No, as you inhale the diaphragm is contracting and pulling down, expanding the lungs. As you breathe out, the muscle relaxes and rises up again.
the diaphragm
When the diaphragm moves down it is relaxing, causing the thoracic cavity to recoil. An increase in pressure causes the lungs to expel.
During inhalation, the diaphragm contracts and moves downward, allowing the lungs to expand and fill with air. This creates a vacuum in the chest cavity, drawing air into the lungs. During exhalation, the diaphragm relaxes and moves upward, forcing air out of the lungs.
The opposite. When you exhale, the diaphragm moves upward to push the air out of the lungs.
Air moves into the lungs when the diaphragm is flattened. The diaphragm is relaxed (arched) during expiration.
