When you inhale, the diaphragm, a dome-shaped muscle located at the base of the chest cavity, contracts and moves downward. This contraction increases the volume of the thoracic cavity, causing a decrease in pressure and allowing air to flow into the lungs. Additionally, the intercostal muscles between the ribs also contract, further expanding the chest cavity.

Which organ expands to inhale and contracts to exhale?
The organ that expands to inhale and contracts to exhale is the diaphragm. When you inhale, the diaphragm moves downward, increasing the thoracic cavity's volume and allowing air to flow into the lungs. During exhalation, the diaphragm relaxes and moves upward, decreasing the thoracic cavity's volume and pushing air out of the lungs. This rhythmic movement is essential for breathing.
