Answer the following statements true (T) or false (F)

1. During inspiration, the diaphragm contracts and moves up into the thoracic cavity. 2. During inspiration, the size of the chest cavity enlarges. 3. If atmospheric pressure is 760 mm Hg, the pressure inside the chest cavity must be below 760 mm Hg for inspiration to occur. 4.
