When does pressure in your lungs increase?

[tex]\huge\red{\: \: ANSWER\: \:}[/tex]

When we inhale the pressure of our lungs will increase and the lungs volume expands as a result of the contraction of the diaphragm and intercostal muscles thus expanding the thoracic cavity.

Answer:

When we inhale

Explanation:

During the process of inhalation, the lung volume expands as a result of the contraction of the diaphragm and intercostal muscles (the muscles that are connected to the rib cage), thus expanding the thoracic cavity. Due to this increase in volume, the pressure is decreased, based on the principles of Boyle's Law.
