Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which muscle is primarily responsible for the process of inhalation?
  • Step 1: Understand that inhalation is the process of breathing in air.
  • Step 2: Identify the main muscle involved in this process, which is the diaphragm.
  • Step 3: Know that the diaphragm is a dome-shaped muscle located at the bottom of the rib cage.
  • Step 4: During inhalation, the diaphragm contracts, which means it tightens and moves downward.
  • Step 5: When the diaphragm moves down, it creates more space in the chest area (thoracic cavity).
  • Step 6: This increase in space allows air to flow into the lungs, completing the inhalation process.
