Place the correct word into the sentence to describe the muscles of respiration.
a. elevate

b. depress

c. flex

d. extend

1. The internal intercostals depress (wrong answer) the ribs and expand the thoracic cavity during inspiration.

2. The external intercostals elevate (wrong answer) the ribs causing a partial vaccuum effect resulting in an influx of air.

I put these answers in but they are wrong need help

Expert Solution

1.The internal Intercoastal muscles depress the ribs and shrink the thoracic cavity during Expiration.

(During inspiration internal intercoastal muscles are relaxed,External intercoastal contracts which elevate the ribs and cause Increased lung volume decreased Pressure and so the air Flows in)

2.The External Intercoastal muscle Elevate the ribs and expand the thoracic cavity during inspiration causing a partial vaccuum effect resulting in an influx of air. The internal intercostal muscles are responsible for forced exhalation. They depress the ribs and decrease space in the chest cavity

When you inhale the internal intercostal muscles relax and the external intercostal muscles contract, pulling the ribcage upwards and outwards. the diaphragm contracts, pulling downwards. lung volume increases and the air pressure inside decreases.

Remember that-

1.The internal intercostals bring the ribs down during forced expiration.

2.The external intercostals elevate the ribs in inspiration.

A. Choose the word that makes this sentence correct: The higher/lower the narrow-sense heritability of a trait, the faster you would expect that trait to respond to selection. B. Explain your answer from part A. Identify the equation you could use to predict the response of a trait to selection (1 pt.). Describe mathematically how changing the narrow-sense heritability would lead to the outcome you identified in part A

A palindrome is a string of characters (a word, phrase, or sentence) that is the same regardless of whether you read it forward or backward – assuming that you ignore spaces, punctuation and case. For example, Race car is a palindrome. So is A man, a plan, a canal: Panama. 1. Describe how you could use a stack to test whether a string is a palindrome. 2. Describe how you could use a queue to test whether a string is...

which belongs to each sentence? In [external/ or cellular] respiration, these gases are exchanged between the body's tissues and the outside environment by way of the respiratory system. In [ external/ or cellular] respiration, these gases are used and created by the metabolic processes of the cells. [alveolar capillary membranes, type 2 alveolar cells, type 1 alveolar cells] make up the main structure of the alveolar wall. The walls of the alveoli are very thin, separated from the capillary vessels by...
