Rib muscles

1 answer

The two main components that control the breathing process are:

  1. The diaphragm - This muscle is crucial for breathing, as it contracts to allow air to fill the lungs and relaxes to push air out.

  2. Rib muscles (intercostal muscles) - These muscles assist in the expansion and contraction of the ribcage during breathing.

So the correct selections are The diaphragm and Rib muscles.
