Which muscle is or are the most important muscle used in inspiration or inhalation?
Diaphragm
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 :)
What muscle or muscles expand the chest cavity by rotating the ribs upward contibuting to inspiration?
What muscle expand the chest cavity by rotating the ribs upward, contributing to inspiration
What aides in the process of inhalation?
Negative pressure produced by the contraction of certain muscles like the diaphragm muscle and the intercostal muscles.
What is the chief muscle of inspiration?
the prime mover is the muscle responsible for most of the movement in a group of muscles; called the chief muscle.
Which muscle is most important muscle used in inspiration?
diaphram
What are the muscles involved when you take a deep breath?
The muscles of assisted inhalation are the external intercostal muscles, pectoral minor, and scalenes. The main muscle of respiration is the diaphragm.
Which muscle is the prime mover for inhalation?
Diaphragm is the the prime mover for the inhalation. It is a dome shaped partition between the thorax and the abdomen. It gets some what flat as it contracts. The volume of the thorax increases. There by the air is pulled in the thorax.
What muscle expand chest cavity upward during inspiration?
The diaphragm (a sheet of muscle underneath the ribcage) and intercostal muscles (located between your ribs).
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 muscle is the prime mover of inspiration?
The diaphragm is the prime mover of inspiration, as it contracts and flattens during inhalation, creating a vacuum in the chest cavity that allows air to be drawn into the lungs.
What muscle contract during inhalation and what muscles contract during exhalation?
The intercostal muscles, (muscles between the ribs), contract.
