b) Smaller air passages, the lungs (2), the pleura, muscles of respiration, larynx
c) Trachea, bronchi – primary, secondary, tertiary, bronchioles & smaller air
passages, 2 lungs & their coverings, the pleura, muscles of respiration
d) The primary, secondary, tertiary, bronchioles & smaller air passag
C. Trache, bronchi primary, secondary, tertiary, bronchioles & smaller air

b) External intercostal muscles, neck muscles and abdominal muscles
c) Diaphragm, external intercostal muscles and neck muscles.
C. Diaphragm, external intercostal muscles and neck muscles
What muscles facilitate inspiration
Diaphragm,external intercostal muscles and neck muscles
Muscles that aid in forced expiration
a) Internal intercostal muscles, and abdominal muscles
b) Abdominal muscles and diaphragm
c) Internal intercostal muscles and external intercostal muscles
d) Internal intercostal muscles and diaphragm.
A,Internal intercostal muscles and abdominal muscles
What muscles aid forced expiration
Internal intercostal muscles and abdominal muscles
The following is the correct sequence of events for a successful inspiration:
a) Diaphragm & external intercostal muscles contract; drop in intrapulmonary
pressure; size of thoracic cavity increases; flow of air into lungs
b) Diaphragm & external intercostal muscles contract; size of thoracic cavity
increases; drop in intrapulmonary pressure; flow of air into lungs
c) Diaphragm & external intercostal muscles contract; size of thoracic cavity
increases; drop in intrapulmonary pressure; flow of air out of lungs
d) None of the above
B.Diaphragm and External intercoastal muscles contract:thoraic cavity increases and drop in intrapulmonary pressure and air flows in lungs
Sequence of successful inspiration
Diaphragm & external intercostal muscles contract, drop in intrapulmonary pr3ssure , size of thoracic cavity increased and air flows into lungs
