During inhalation, air moves from the higher pressure outside the body to the lower pressure inside the lungs. This is because when the diaphragm and intercostal muscles contract, the volume of the thoracic cavity increases and the air pressure decreases, causing air to rush in to equalize the pressure.

What direction does air particles move when they cause vibration?
Air particles move back and forth in the direction of the vibration when they cause it. The energy from the vibrations is transferred through the air as sound waves.
What makes balloon boats move?
Balloon boats move due to the escaping air from the balloon propelling the boat forward. When the air is released from the inflated balloon, it creates a force in the opposite direction, causing the boat to move in the direction of the escaping air.
In which direction does air move: from hot to cold or from cold to hot?
Air moves from hot to cold.
Why is air able to move in all directions?
Air is able to move in all directions because it is a gas and its particles are not tightly packed together. This allows air molecules to move freely and spread out in any direction.
What Move rapidly down through the air?
This action is referred to as falling or descending quickly in a downward direction through the air.
What direction does the air move?
Everywhere
What are similarities and differences between inhalation and exhalation?
Both inhalation and exhalation are part of the respiratory process where air is exchanged in the lungs. During inhalation, the diaphragm and intercostal muscles contract to expand the chest cavity, allowing air to enter the lungs. During exhalation, these muscles relax, and the chest cavity decreases in size, forcing air out of the lungs. The key difference is the direction of airflow: inhalation is the process of taking air into the lungs, while exhalation is the process of expelling air from the lungs.
What direction does air particles move when they cause vibration?
Air particles move back and forth in the direction of the vibration when they cause it. The energy from the vibrations is transferred through the air as sound waves.
Why did the smoke move first in an upward direction and then a downward direction?
positive air pressure then hit a negative air pressure.
How do hovercrafts move on water?
A hovercraft can move on water by forcing air downward. The hovercraft will be lifted by the air. The craft can move by rotating the Jets of air in the direction you want to go.
What makes balloon boats move?
Balloon boats move due to the escaping air from the balloon propelling the boat forward. When the air is released from the inflated balloon, it creates a force in the opposite direction, causing the boat to move in the direction of the escaping air.
In which direction does air move: from hot to cold or from cold to hot?
Air moves from hot to cold.
What direction does air above a heated surface move?
in a upward motion
In which direction does an air mass move?
Towards a region of lower pressure.
Why do freely suspended balloons move towards while blowing air?
If the balloon is exhausting air, then it will move in a direction opposite to the exhaust gas.
Does the diaphragm move up on inhalation?
No, the diaphragm moves down during inhalation. This action increases the space in the chest cavity, allowing the lungs to expand and fill with air. The downward movement of the diaphragm creates negative pressure in the chest, which draws air into the lungs.
Is artificial respiration the same as inhalation?
inhalation is the taking in of air to the lungsartificial respiration is a method of forcing air in and out of the lungs when the body is not able to do this itself
