Answer:

The diaphragm is the large muscular sheet which forms the floor of the chest cavity.

Explanation:

Diaphragm contracts and relaxes during inhalation and exhalation of air. Apart from serving the function in respiration, the diaphragm is also involved in non-respiratory functions such as to expel vomit, urine, and feces from the body by increasing the intra-abdominal pressure; helps in childbirth.
