The lung expands when it gets full of air , so the chest needs to do the same ,because if it didn't the lungs wouldn't fit in there when they get full , and that would be a terrible mistake of our body.
The movement of the diaphragm affects the size of the chest cavity by when you inhale the chest cavity enlarges, but when you exhale the chest cavity becomes smaller.
You can not know the position of diaphragm, when you inhale or exhale. The position of the diaphragm changes automatically.
When you inhale, your diaphragm contracts and moves downward, expanding the chest cavity and drawing air into the lungs. The oxygen in the air is then exchanged with carbon dioxide in the blood. When you exhale, the diaphragm relaxes and moves upward, compressing the chest cavity and pushing air out of the lungs.
you inhale when your diaphragm contracts.
When you inhale, your diaphragm and rib muscles contract, expanding your chest cavity and allowing air to be drawn into your lungs. This process brings oxygen into the body. When you exhale, your diaphragm and rib muscles relax, causing your chest cavity to decrease in size and push the air out of your lungs. This process expels carbon dioxide from the body.
the diaphragm. It is right above the heart and lungs, and expands and contracts when you breathe in and out. You can almost feel it move down a little, when you release air.
When the Diaphragm contracts, it is pulled down, and is pulled back up when it relaxes.Also, when you inhale, it contracts. When you exhale, it relaxes.

Your diaphragm IS muscle. When we inhale, it is pushed down. When we exhale, it is pulled up.
When the diaphragm contracts and moves lower, the chest cavity enlarges, reducing the pressure outside the lungs. To equalize the pressure, air enters the lungs. When the diaphragm relaxes and moves back up, the elasticity of the lungs and chest wall pushes air out of the lungs.
The dome-shaped muscle below the chest cavity is called the diaphragm. It plays a crucial role in the breathing process by contracting and relaxing to create changes in thoracic pressure, allowing us to inhale and exhale air.
contracts means to come together or to close. Try breathing. Does your diaphragm get smaller when you inhale or exhale? ********************************************************** Hint: it contracts when you inhale..
