The primary muscles used for blowing are the diaphragm, intercostal muscles (between the ribs), and the muscles of the abdominal wall. These muscles work together to control the pressure and airflow needed to produce a forceful breath out.

What happens to your muscles when your joint is bent?

When a joint is bent, the muscles around that joint contract and shorten. This causes the joint to move, resulting in the bending or flexing of the joint. The specific muscles involved and the degree of contraction depend on the joint and the movement being performed.


what muscle provides protection to the abdominal organs?

Muscles are made up of tough, long cells that contract to create a hard, dense layer of protection. Organs are very soft and fragile and do not have this ability so muscles are required to surround them so they do not get hurt. Try this experiment: Relax your stomach and gently poke your stomach. It feels soft and your finger pushes easily against your body. Now, tighten your stomach muscles while you gently poke your stomach again. You will find that your stomach is much harder to push against than the first time. This is because all your stomach muscles have contracted to create a hard layer of protection so your vital organs do not get damaged.


What substance makes the muscle hard?

When muscles contract, the protein filaments within them slide past one another, causing the muscle to shorten and feel hard. This process involves actin and myosin filaments interacting within muscle fibers, resulting in the characteristic hardness of contracted muscles.

Not sure if this is a real physics question... but yes, pushing against a wall is tiring even though no "work" is being done. Its isometric conditioning. Think of this: Put your hands in front of you and press them together as hard as you can for as long as you can. This will tire you out pretty quick.

The girl going uphill is pushing against gravity and frictional forces. Gravity is pulling her body downward, making it harder for her to move upwards. Frictional forces between her feet and the ground are also opposing the motion, requiring extra effort to overcome.
