Answer:
When we inhale the intercostal muscles (between the ribs) and diaphragm contract to expand the chest cavity. ... When we exhale the diaphragm and intercostal muscles relax and return to their resting positions. This reduces the size of the thoracic cavity, thereby increasing the pressure and forcing air out of the lungs.
