Sure! Here is the transcribed text for an educational website: --- **Exercise: Respiratory System Dynamics** Complete the sentences below by highlighting, underlining, or circling the correct answers in the [brackets]: a. During inspiration, the volume inside the thoracic cavity [increases/decreases], resulting in a(n) [increase/decrease] in intrapulmonary pressure compared to the pressure in the atmosphere. This causes air to [enter/leave] the lungs. b. During expiration, the volume inside the thoracic cavity [increases/decreases], resulting in a(n) [increase/decrease] in intrapulmonary pressure compared to the pressure in the atmosphere. This causes air to [enter/leave] the lungs. --- This exercise focuses on understanding the mechanics of breathing, specifically how changes in thoracic cavity volume affect air pressure and airflow.
