During forced expiration, actively contracting muscles include the
-
Diaphragm
-
External intercostals
-
Abdominal muscles
-
Diaphragm and intestinal muscle
The most important muscles of forced expiration are those of the abdominals. When these muscles contract, intra-abdominal pressure is raised, and the diaphragm is pushed upward. These muscles also contract forcefully during coughing, vomiting, and defecation. The internal intercostal muscles assist active expiration by pulling the ribs downward and inward thus decreasing the thoracic volume.
The exchange of gases in the alveoli of the lungs takes place by

Osmosis
-
Simple diffusion
-
Passive transport
-
Active transport
