What do the external intercostals do to the rib cage?
These muscles lift the rib cage to increase thoracic volume (inhaling or inspiration)
What do the internal intercostals do to the rib cage?
These muscles collapse the rib cage, reducing thoracic volume to produce forceful exhalations or expirations
