    4. D The ribs move down and inwards, the diaphragm moves down, and the chest cavity becomes smaller
    Show answer

    Correct answer: (B) The ribs move up and outwards, the diaphragm moves down, and the chest cavity becomes larger

    During inhalation the ribs move up and outwards and the diaphragm moves down, which increases the space in the chest cavity, and air rushes into the lungs. During exhalation the ribs move down and inwards and the diaphragm moves up to its former position.

    2. B Anecdotal record
    3. C Cumulative record
    4. D Blueprint of a question paper
    Show answer
