Inspiration causes intercostal muscles to contract and the lungs to inflate.

Inhaling air or inspiration and expiration or exhaling air outside of the lungs are the two processes that are included in pulmonary ventilation. During inhaling, there is a contraction of the intercostal muscles and diaphragm. This results in the expansion of the rib cage. Along with this, lung volume also increases. 

During exhaling, there is relaxation of the intercostal muscles and diaphragm. This results in the contraction of the rib cage. Along with this, lung volume also decreases. Intercostal muscles and abdominal muscles participate in forced exhalation. Thus, by forcing the air out of the lungs.

Inspiration causes intercostal muscles to contract and the lungs to inflate.

20% of wood is damaged and thrown away and only 20 kilograms is left vv is its original weight​
sesenic [268]
The original weight is 4.

Explanation:

20%= 1/5 if u don’t know the percentage then u can simply by doing..

20/100 then u divide it. U can do this by any other numbers such as 2, 4,5,10 and 20. U can do which ever way u like but i would recommend doing it either by 10 or 20.

So if we divide it by 20 we do...

20/100 divided by 20= 1/5

Or

20/100 divided by 10= 2/10

2/10 divided by 2 = 1/5

You can see the bigger the number that fits in is faster, although u can do it any way u feel like doing.

So we have got 1/5 from 20%. Now we do...

1/5 divided by 20. So when we do this, we use the bottom number to divide it and the top number to times it.

So..

1/5 u could use as 20 divided by 5..
Then 1 times the number that u get from ur before sum.

The answer is 4.

Because 1/5= 20 divided by 5 = 4
Since we have a 1 left we do..

4 times 1 which is... 4.

( u don’t need to show these parts in doing ur working, but i am doing these so they can help u understand)

So the answer is 4 and is the original weight.

I hope this is clear and helps u! :D
