The upper respiratory system is composed of these divisions:
Nasal cavity
Larynx
Pharynx
Bronchioles
These apply to inhalation
Diaphragm moves up
Ribs move in
Ribs move out
Diaphragm contracts
Creates larger pressure in thoracic cavity
These apply to exhilation
Diaphragm relaxes
Pressure increases in thoracic cavity
Pressure is less outside the body
Diaphragm moves down
Which answer is true?
Increase in volume= increase in pressure
decrease in volume= increase in pressure
decrease in volume= decrease in pressure
Increase in volume= decrease in pressure
What causes change in pressure when we breathe?
Carbon dioxide levels
Oxygen levels
