Answer:

D.The diaphragm contracts and thoracic volume increases.

Explanation:

During inhalation, the diaphragm and intercostal muscle contract which results in the expansion of the lungs. Due to this increase, the pressure is reduced.  This decrease of pressure within the thoracic cavity as compared to the surroundings makes which creates a pressure gradient between the environment and the thoracic cavity. Due to the pressure gradient, air rush into the lungs

Answer:

The answer is movement toward or away from Earth.

In astronomy, it is said that the Doppler effect tells Astronomers whether a star, or galaxy, is approaching or going away from us. It turns out the farther a galaxy is away, the faster it gets away from us - meaning that the Universe is expanding.

Almost all coal used today was produced during the Carboniferous period from dead animals in the swamps.
Ann [662]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Almost all coal that is used today has its origins in the Carboniferous period. The Carboniferous period was a warm and wet one, with the majority of the land being swampy and covered with dense rainforests of ancient tree species. By the end of this period, the climate quickly changed, resulting int he collapse of the rainforests. As the trees were dying out, they were falling in the swamps, quickly being covered by the mud, so remaining largely preserved. Over time they got exposed to higher pressure and temperatures as they were getting deeper into the crust, eventually resulting in the formation of the coal.
