The chest cavity, or thoracic cavity, contains 24 bones primarily made up of the rib cage. This includes 12 pairs of ribs, which attach to the thoracic vertebrae in the spine. Additionally, the sternum, or breastbone, comprises three parts: the manubrium, body, and xiphoid process, contributing to the overall structure of the chest. Together, these bones protect vital organs such as the heart and lungs, while also assisting in respiration.
The diaphragm and intercostal muscles contract, increasing the volume of the chest cavity. This decrease in pressure within the chest cavity causes air to rush into the lungs. Oxygen from the inhaled air diffuses into the bloodstream through the alveoli. Carbon dioxide, a waste product, is exhaled out of the lungs.
