During inhalation, diaphragm contracts and it lead to the expansion of lung volume. When diaphragm contracts, it moves to the abdominal cavity which create a large thorasic cavity . when the external intercoastal muscles contracts, it cause toward and downward movement of the ribs, which cause the rib cage to expand , thereby leading to increase in size of thorasic cavity.
