What part of the respiratory system pushes and pulls the lungs to draw air in and out?
Breathing. Kidding aside, the breathing centre in the brain is constantly receiving signals from the body about the amount of oxygen that is needed. This will depend on how active you are. When you are asleep you will need far less oxygen than when you are running. When you are asleep you will breathe more slowly, and when you are running, you will breathe more rapidly. Once the brain knows how much oxygen is needed, it sends messages along nerves to the breathing muscles so that the right amount of air is breathed into the lungs.
