Detailed explanation-1: -The first phase is called inspiration, or inhaling. 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.
Detailed explanation-2: -Breathing (or pulmonary ventilation) has two phases-inspiration (or inhalation) and expiration (or exhalation). It is a mechanical process that depends on volume changes in the chest cavity.
Detailed explanation-3: -When you breathe in, your diaphragm contracts (tightens) and flattens, moving down towards your abdomen. This movement creates a vacuum in your chest, allowing your chest to expand (get bigger) and pull in air. When you breathe out, your diaphragm relaxes and curves back up as your lungs push the air out.
