Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -When the lungs inhale, the diaphragm contracts and pulls downward. At the same time, the muscles between the ribs contract and pull upward. This increases the size of the thoracic cavity and decreases the pressure inside. As a result, air rushes in and fills the lungs.
Detailed explanation-2: -The mechanism of breathing involves two main processes: inspiration and expiration. Inspiration occurs when the diaphragm and the external intercostal muscles contract. Expiration occurs when the diaphragm and the intercostal muscles relax.
Detailed explanation-3: -Final answer: The correct sequence of the passage of air during inspiration is Pharynx → Larynx → Trachea → Bronchi → Alveoli.
