2. 1) Label all parts involved in breathing movements.

alveolus.
3) One function of the small intestine is to absorb food. One function of the lungs is to absorb oxygen. Point out the basic

4) Place the following in the correct order: lungs deflate, , air leaves lungs, external intercostal muscles relax, thorax back
to dome shape.
