Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Breathing out; ____ of breath.
A
Inhalation
B
exhalation
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Exhalation: When you breathe out, or exhale, your diaphragm relaxes and moves up into your chest cavity. As the space in your chest cavity gets smaller, air rich in carbon dioxide is forced out of your lungs and windpipe, and then out your nose or mouth.

Detailed explanation-2: -The lungs and respiratory system allow us to breathe. They bring oxygen into our bodies (called inspiration, or inhalation) and send carbon dioxide out (called expiration, or exhalation). This exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide is called respiration.

Detailed explanation-3: -The second phase is called expiration, or exhaling. When the lungs exhale, the diaphragm relaxes, and the volume of the thoracic cavity decreases, while the pressure within it increases.

Detailed explanation-4: -Shortness of breath is often a symptom of heart and lung problems. But it can also be a sign of other conditions like asthma, allergies or anxiety. Intense exercise or having a cold can also make you feel breathless.

Detailed explanation-5: -The first phase is the inspiration phase. Inspiration allows air to flow into the lungs. The second phase is expiration. Expiration involves gases leaving the lungs.
