What else can I help you with?
What muscle is contracted to exhale forcibly?
Diaphragm & interna intercostal muscle
What is the muscle between your ribs called?
intercostal muscle
What is the important muscle of inspiaration?
Most important muscle of inspiration is the diaphragm, which upon contraction, pulls the base of the lung down and increases the pressure inside of the lung, drawing air into the lungs. Other muscles that are not as important except for in forced inspiration are the intercostal muscles and sternocleidomastoid muscles, which only work when forced expiration is required as well :)
InterCostal muscle pain?
The intercostal muscle area is located in the area surrounding the ribs. Intercostal muscle pain can be caused by overworking these muscles or by excessive coughing.
What muscle is associated with TMJ?
the intercostal muscle
An unpaired muscle that acts with the muscle to accomplish inspiration?
Inspiration is due to the contraction of the diaphragm and external intercostal muscles.
What is the muscle between the ribs that can enlarge the thoracic cavity?
Intercostal Muscles
The functions of the intercostal?
Intercostal muscles are several groups of muscles that run between the ribs, and help form and move the chest wall. There are three principal layers; * the external intercostal muscles, which aid in quiet and forced inhalation. They originate on ribs 1-11 and have their insertion on ribs 2-12. The external intercostals are responsible for the elevation of the ribs, and expanding the transverse dimensions of the thoracic cavity. Located around the the ribs * the internal intercostal muscles, which aid in forced expiration (quiet expiration is a passive process). They originate on ribs 1-11 and have their insertions on ribs 2-12. The internal intercostals are responsible for the depression of the ribs decreasing the transverse dimensions of the thoracic cavity. * the innermost intercostal muscle Both the external and internal muscles are innervated by the intercostal nerves (the ventral rami of thoracic spinal nerves), and are provided by the intercostal arteries and intercostal veins. Their fibers run in opposite directions.
What is the definition of intercostals?
That is a good question. You have twelve intercostal nerves going between your ribs. They supply the intercostal muscles and carry back the sensations. You have the brachial plexus and lumbosacral plexuses. They are complicated as on today. But long back in evolution scale they were parallel. There complicated arrangement tells the the movement of muscle mass during evolution.
What muscle is involved in respiration?
the intercostal muscles and the diaphragm
What muscle are you eating when you eat ribs?
intercostal muscles
This muscle makes breathing possible?
The main muscle used is the diaphragm. Also, the intercostal muscle.
