RESPIRATORY SYSTEM

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

Detailed explanation-1: -Expiration (exhalation) is the process of letting air out of the lungs during the breathing cycle. During expiration, the relaxation of the diaphragm and elastic recoil of tissue decreases the thoracic volume and increases the intraalveolar pressure. Expiration pushes air out of the lungs.

Detailed explanation-2: -This model assumes that the respiratory cycle consists of three phases: inspiration, post-inspiration, and expiration. Five respiratory neuronal groups are included: inspiratory, late-inspiratory, post-inspiratory, expiratory, and early-inspiratory neurons.

Detailed explanation-3: -One inhale to fill up most of your lungs (mini-pause) A second, smaller inhale to fully ‘top up’ your lungs (mini-pause) One exhale to release most of the air from your lungs (mini-pause) A second, smaller exhale to fully ‘push out’ the rest of the air from your lungs (mini-pause)

Detailed explanation-4: -The respiratory cycle is the process of inhaling and exhaling air. The main purpose of the respiratory cycle is to bring fresh oxygen into the body and to expel carbon dioxide. Breathing is made possible thanks to a muscle called the diaphragm.
