inhalation - accessory muscles are used
exhalation- passive so no muscles needed
Describe the functions of the thoracic cage
1-protection
2-support and attachement
3-movement.
What happens to the diaphragm during inhalation?
It contracts causing the diaphragm to flatten and push downward on the abdomen which increases the thorax in vertical size and the abdomen moves outward
What happens to the diaphragm during exhalation?
The diaphragm relaxes returning to itsnormal dome shape
What happens during exhalation to the thoracic cage?
decrease in thoracic vertical size, decrease in thoracic transverse diameter, and a decrease in thoracic AP diameter
What happens to the thoracic cage when the diaphragm contracts?
Increase in thoracic vertical size, increase in thoracic transverse diameter, increase in thoracic AP diameter

Abdominals: external oblique, interal oblique, transverse abdominous and rectus abdominous
Which muscles are used for normal breathing and their function to change thoracic volume
diahragm and external intercostals. When diaphragm contracts it flattens and pulls upward on the anterior rib ends which increases vertical volume in both diameters. The external intercostals contract to elevate the ribs causing an increase in both diameters. During exhalation both muscles relax causing the tissue to recoil and to decrease thoracic volume and air is expelled.
Which muscles are used for deep or forced breathing? How do they change thoracic volume?
accessory muscles used.
Sternocleidomastoid: during inhalation, the AP diameter increased. Scalenes: duing exhalation they stabilize the lungs by contracting. Serratus: both diameters increased by raising ribs during deep inhalation. On pecs, major and minor, they pull ribs and sternum upward during a forced inhalation
