What else can I help you with?
Which part of the human brain is responsible for maintaining breathing when you are asleep?
The part of the human brain responsible for maintaining breathing during sleep is the brainstem, specifically the medulla oblongata. This region regulates autonomic functions, including respiration, by sending signals to the muscles involved in breathing. It monitors carbon dioxide and oxygen levels in the blood to ensure that breathing continues even while the body is at rest.
What two body systems are used when breathing hard during a jog?
The respiratory system and the cardiovascular system are used when breathing hard during a jog. The respiratory system delivers oxygen to the muscles, while the cardiovascular system transports the oxygenated blood to the working muscles and removes waste products.
During excersise why does breathing rate increase so quickly?
Because your muscles need more oxygen, hence you hyperventilate.
How many external intercostal muscles are there?
There are 11 pairs of external intercostal muscles in humans. These muscles are located between the ribs and are involved in expanding the chest cavity during inhalation.
Major functions of the phrenic nerves?
The major function of the phrenic nerves is to innervate the diaphragm, which is the primary muscle responsible for respiration. These nerves play a crucial role in controlling the movement of the diaphragm during breathing by sending signals from the brain to the diaphragm muscle. Dysfunction of the phrenic nerves can lead to respiratory issues and difficulty breathing.
Who is involved during respiration?
breathing!
What muscles between the ribs lift during normal resting breathing?
intercostal muscles
What sheet of muscles in your body cavity helps you during breathing process?
These would be the abdominal muscles.
What muscles are not involved with inspiration?
During inspiration, the primary muscles involved are the diaphragm and intercostal muscles. Muscles not involved in this process include the abdominal muscles and certain back muscles, such as the latissimus dorsi, which primarily assist with other movements rather than inhalation. Additionally, while accessory muscles like the sternocleidomastoid and scalene muscles may aid in deep or labored breathing, they are not required for normal inspiration. Thus, many core and upper body muscles do not play a direct role in the act of inhaling.

Can you please tell me what skeletal muscles contracted during sleeping?
The diaphragm and intercostals for breathing
What type of energy is used when you breathe?
Breathing uses mechanical energy to move the muscles involved in the expansion and contraction of the lungs. This movement allows the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide to occur during respiration.
What is caused by a contraction of the muscles of respiration?
The various muscles of respiration aid in both inspiration and expiration, which require changes in the pressure within the thoracic cavity. The respiratory muscles work to achieve this by changing the dimensions of the thoracic cavity.The principal muscles are the diaphragm, the external intercostal and the interchondral part of the internal intercostal muscles. Both the external intercostal muscles and the intercondral elevate the ribs, thus increasing the width of the thoracic cavity, while the diaphragm contracts to increase the vertical dimensions of the thoracic cavity, and also aids in the elevation of the lower ribs.Accessory muscles are typically only used when the body needs to process energy quickly (e.g. during heavy exercise, during the stress response, or during an asthma attack). The accessory muscles of inspiration can also become engaged in everyday breathing when a breathing pattern disorder exists.
Why does it hurt when you breathe out and not in?
Depends on the cause of the pain, but if the pain is from overexertion from intense physical activity, may be due to the muscles involved in respiration. The intercostal muscles between the ribs, and diaphragmatic muscles, both expand and are placed under greater stress during inhalation. Upon exhalation, the release of air allows these muscles to relax without effort, being usually a passive part of the breathing cycle.
