Taking in air as the diaphragm contracts and pulls downward?

The diaphragm will contract and become flat instead of curved. This will give more air in the ribcage for the lungs, which now have a lower pressure (x amount of particles in a larger space). This draws air in from the outside as the pressure is higher outside of the lungs. Hence why you breathe. The ribcage will push up and outward as the lungs expand.

Does the diaphragm help project your voice?

well my friend it is quite easy to explain. The diaphragm is the section of our body that separates the Thorax from the Abdomen. There is a special hole in the diaphragm to let our food and etc. pass through. It is found that you are able to create a build up of air with your diaphragm which would help you to project your voice better. This doesn't mean that you have to have a good diaphragm to be a good actor but rather that it helps you a little more, unrecognizable by the human ear. ---Forgive me if my thesis is wrong as i am taking a very educated guess which could be wrong or write...its up to you to test it out, i am simply suggesting a reason---

What causes diaphragm elevated?

Cysts, an infection or abscess, hematoma, or a tumor may be problems that are taking place below the diaphragm. these may be causing upward presure that elevate the diaphragm. Damage to the nerve that controls the diaphragm the (phrenic nerve) or infiltration of the diaphragm by lung cancer or similar tumors can also cause elevation of half of the diaphragm. lung collapse, lung fibrosis, painful pleurisy, pulmonary embolus, or a rib fracture may cause elevation of half of the diaphragm. If there is acute elevation of the entire diaphragm combined with paralysis of both of the phrenic nerves, sudden death may occur.
