During volume changes in the thoracic cavity, <u>Diaphragm</u> is primarily responsible for changes in length.

The main components of the respiratory system are the two lungs. They are located in the thoracic cavity, which is the area to the left and right of the heart. The rib cage safeguards the cavity. Other components of the respiratory system are supported by a muscular sheet known as the diaphragm.

The diaphragm contracts and pulls downward upon inspiration, or when the lungs inhale. The muscles between the ribcage tighten and pull upward at the same time. As a result, the pressure inside the thoracic cavity lowers and its size grows. Air rushes in as a result, filling the lungs.

Thus, diaphragm is responsible for the increase in length of the thoracic cavity.

Answer: false, for example, if a frog eats flies, and the flies are land animals,  if they go extinct the frogs could die off, meaning any fish or water dwellers that eat the frogs can starve and cause a large chain reaction.

When Lactate Builds Up In A Runner's Muscles, It Causes A Burning Sensation. What Causes This To Occur?
Fantom [35]

One of the most general forms of discomfort or pain one feels at the time of strenous work out is a burning sensation in the muscles or lungs, which goes away after some time, that is, after stopping the activity. This is a result of an accumulation of lactic acid.

Lactic acid is a by-product of the procedure the body goes through when it requires to generate energy more briskly that it does usually, like when one exercises.

The muscles functioning generally produce energy aerobically, that is, by using oxygen, however, when one push himself or herself at the time of workout and enough oxygen is not accessible, then these muscles start producing energy anaerobically, resulting in production of lactic acid as a by-product and ultimately causing burning sensation.
