which of the following is not a part of inspiration? group of answer choices the pressure in the lungs increases. the rib cage moves up and out. the diaphragm contracts and moves down. the intercostal muscles pull the ribs outward. air rushes into the lungs.

The process of moving air into and out of the lungs to facilitate gas exchange with the internal environment, primarily to flush out carbon dioxide and bring in oxygen, is known as breathing (or ventilation).

The process of taking air into the lungs is known as inspiration (inhalation). Because it is the result of muscle contraction, it is the active phase of ventilation. The diaphragm contracts and the thoracic cavity expands during inspiration. This lowers the intraalveolar pressure, allowing air to enter the lungs.

Expiration (exhalation) is the process by which air is expelled from the lungs during the breathing cycle. The relaxation of the diaphragm and elastic recoil of tissue during expiration reduces thoracic volume while increasing intraalveolar pressure. Expiration forces air from the lungs.
