When the diaphragm contracts, it tenses and moves inferiorly, causing(a) an increase in the volume of the thoracic cavity. (b) a decrease in the volume of the thoracic cavity. (c) decreased pressure on the contents of the abdominopelvic cavity. (d) increased pressure in the thoracic cavity.
When the inspiratory muscles contract, (a) only the lateral dimension of the thoracic cavity increases, (b) only the anteroposterior dimension of the thoracic cavity increases, (c) the volume of the thoracic cavity decreases, (d) both the lateral and the anteroposterior dimensions of the thoracic cavity increase, (e) the diaphragm bulges superiorly.
Select the best answer or answers from the choices given: When the inspiratory muscles contract, (a) the size of the thoracic cavity increases in diameter, (b) the size of the thoracic cavity increases in length, (c) the volume of the thoracic cavity decreases, (d) the size of the thoracic cavity increases in both length and diameter.
